About this title:
Synopsis: How can society best respond to people with atypical neurological development? Should we concentrate on providing medical care, or on ensuring civil rights? Addressing these questions, Dana Lee Baker offers a provocative analysis of the ways that intersecting agendas prevention, civil rights, providing specialized care, and celebrating disability culture compete to make disability rights policy. The result is a thoughtful and timely consideration of the tensions shaping all quarters of disability advocacy.
About the Author: Dana Lee Baker is assistant professor of political science and criminal justice at Washington State University, Vancouver.
