Publisher's Synopsis
This is an ambitious project. Most disability studies books in America when they are published at all, tend to focus solely on America. This leaves activists, the public, and elected officials than with a critical dearth of information about other countries and how people with disabilities have existed and are existing in other nations.
In this book, it presents an inventory of disability care in several European countries and the United States of America during a critical twenty-five year period, from 1980 to 2005, during which there emerged a real awareness of the absence of defined rights for disabled people leading to a transformative change in the mentality of political leaders and breakthrough legislation to address this situation.
