Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Many people have different abilities and disabilities. While that's a universal truth, the language we use to talk about these abilities and disabilities is definitely not universal. What one person may prefer may not be what another person prefers. However, there are many ways to use language that both recognizes differences and doesn't disparage the challenges that may come with them. The informative main text, augmented with engaging fact boxes and full-color photographs, explores the history of disability rights and the many changes in terminology over the years, addressing how language can make a big difference in perception and pride.
