Nothing About Us Without Us: Disability Oppression and Empowerment

by James I. Charlton - £24.00  California University Press (2000)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780520224810 | ISBN 10: 0520224817

"Compelling reading. Charlton is a subtle thinker - he avoids painting his picture of oppression with simple broad strokes. Nothing About Us Without Us is the most expansive discussion of the disability-rights movement in a political, economic, and global context that I have read. Charlton pushed us to recast many assumptions we might hold about disability in relation to human rights."
(Lennard Davis, The Nation)

"Nothing About Us Without Us is an important contribution in the analysis of the disability rights movement ... Charlton's book is unique because it offers the reader a comprehensive look at the international disability rights movement and takes the important step of placing disability rights in its broader political/economic and sociocultural context ... Well worth reading."
(Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare)
