Publisher's Synopsis
Essays on Issues in Rehabilitation 1957-1988 will give readers some insight into the universal problems of the disabled, handicapped and disadvantaged of the United States and other countries of the world. Local, state, and federal funds, over the past 50 years, have been spent to rehabilitate individuals in these categories as well as other charitable organizations. Our society has come to recognize the importance of training and educating the disabled in order for him or her to enter the work force and become a taxpayer, instead of being on the dole. These essays show that rehabilitation of the disabled is a right that most civilized countries recognize. These papers should inspire students of rehabilitation, psychology, education, and counseling to replicate some of the work.
