Americans with Disabilities: Exploring Implications of the Law for Individuals and Institutions is the first comprehensive exploration of the fundamental philosophical, legal and public policy questions arising from this landmark act. With thought-provoking analysis by noted experts in a variety of fields, Americans with Disabilities provides a keen understanding of the consequences of the law -- for both those who oppose burdensome costs of the law and those who feel it must do more to protect citizens with disabilities from intolerance and social limitation. |
