Deborah Marks examines current theories and practices relating to disability. The focus of the work is not disabled people as 'objects' of study but rather an analysis of disability as it has been historically and culturally constructed and psychically experienced. The chapters cover: * language and discourse * the disabled people's movement * the 'disability' professions * public policy * unconscious investments and interpersonal relationships * knowledge and the politics of disability. This text will be essential reading for students on the growing number of Disability Studies courses, as well as students, policy-makers and professionals in social policy, social work, cultural studies and nursing.

Disability
This is a textbook, but does provide a useful resource for teachers and students. Each chapter is broken into short topic-based essays, with questions to follow. The key of the book is to provoke debate, and it does so. The only query I had while reading it was that so much definitional work and controversy over terms that the politics and policies were rendered equivalent to word selection. This may have been unintentional, but there is no doubt controversies in Disability Studies were probed.
