The Disability Studies Reader by Philip J. Davis
An essential anthology assembling classic and contemporary essays that reframe disability as a complex social, cultural, and political phenomenon rather than merely a medical condition. Contributors interrogate medical and deficit models, introduce the social model and intersectional analyses, and examine how law, literature, media, policy, and everyday practices produce and respond to disability. The collection foregrounds activism, cultural representation, and theoretical frameworks to guide scholarship, teaching, and public debates about inclusion, rights, and access.
