| Publisher Description: Rod Michalko asks why disabled people are still feared, still regarded as useless or unfit to live, and not yet welcome in society. Drawing on his own understanding of blindness and narratives by other disabled people, he challenges us to come to grips with social meanings attached to disability. |
