This volume in The SAGE Reference Series on Disability explores issues involving disability through the life courses, and is one of eight volumes in the cross-disciplinary and issues-based series, which examines topics central to the lives of individuals with disabilities and their families. With a balance of history, theory, research, and application, specialists set out the findings and implications of research and practice for others whose current or future work involves the care and/or study of those with disabilities, as well as for the disabled themselves. The concise, engaging presentational style emphasizes accessibility. Taken individually, each volume sets out the fundamentals of the topic it addresses, accompanied by compiled data and statistics, recommended further readings, a guide to organizations and associations, and other annotated resources, thus providing the ideal introductory platform and gateway for further study. Taken together, the series represents both a survey of major disability issues and a guide to new directions and trends and contemporary resources in the field as a whole.

Arvustused

"Like the rest of the Disability: Key Issues and Future Directions series, Disability Through The Life Course is especially recommended for undergraduate and vocational reference shelves in the libraries of colleges that seek to train students for careers in the field." -- James A Cox * Midwest Book Review * "This book offers a balance of history, theory research, and application for specialists interested in findings and implications of research and practice for others whose current or future work involves the care of and/or study of those with disabilities, as well as for people with disabilities.... Disability Through the Life Course is an excellent resource for university professors and students of any of the many human services disciplines, including adapted physical activity professionals, and a valuable addition to a university library collection." -- Lucy Wong Hernandez, MS * Adapted Physical Activity Quarterly * "This particular volume focuses on disability across the life span, addressing the needs and concerns of people at various stages of life, from prenatal development to old age. Heller and Harris, the main authors, address cultural environmental, political, and socioeconomic aspects of life development. This volume will be a valuable resource for those beginning their research or simply exploring the many facets of this important social issue. Summing Up: Recommended." -- C.L.
