1. 1. The New Disability History

   American Perspectives

   

   A collection of essays that reconceptualizes disability as a vital lens for understanding American history, arguing that disability is shaped by social, cultural, political, and economic forces rather than merely by individual impairment. The contributors trace how institutions, policies, public attitudes, and representations have constructed disability, examine intersections with race, class, gender, and labor, and advocate integrating disability into broader narratives of civil rights and social change. The volume blends scholarship and activism to challenge the medical model and to promote a richer, more inclusive historical framework.

2. 2. Why I Burned My Book And Other Essays On Disability

   And Other Essays on Disability

   

   A collection of sharp, personal and scholarly essays that examine disability as a social, cultural, and political experience rather than merely a medical condition. Through memoir, historical analysis, and critique of popular representations and public policy, the pieces challenge stigma and pity, argue for civil rights and access, and illuminate how society’s structures shape disabled lives while calling for greater dignity, inclusion, and self-determination.
