| Summary: | "The book is valuable reading for all people who are working towards increased social inclusion for disabled people, including theorists and students of disability studies and learning difficulty, leisure management and disability service providers, and disabled people and their families. Using a practical case study approach, it explores the impact that social interaction between disabled and non-disabled people can have in increasing or decreasing disabled people's opportunities for inclusion. Examples of both inclusive and discriminatory practice are described in detail, and their positive and negative effects are demonstrated and discussed. This book offers a wide range of practical suggestions for the future development of more inclusive theory, policy and practice."--BOOK JACKET. |
