Recenzje

Andrews provides an illuminating foundation for disability cultural competence by reviewing key historical, theoretical, and empirical disability studies knowledge in impressive topical breadth and critical depth. This is what disabled people want professionals to know in order to change the dynamics of disempowerment often experienced in service settings." -Carol J. Gill, PhD, Professor Emerita, Department of Disability & Human Development, Interdisciplinary PhD Program in Disability Studies, University of Illinois at Chicago
