Opis

In his memoirs, Wisdom from a Chair, Andrew I. Batavia shares the knowledge he acquired while living with a high-level spinal cord injury in a wheelchair, describing a life transformed from a quiet, conforming teenager to a Don Quixote of the disability community. A Harvard-trained lawyer and activist, he was a pioneer in the right-to-die debate, and wrote regulations for the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.
