Disability is a tool for human service practitioners to use in understanding disability from an empowerment/social model perspective. The text addresses policy, theory, description, and practice from a strengths-based viewpoint, stressing disability as a difference rather than as dysfunction. The book establishes the historical and societal context in which those with disabilities are marginalized, discusses the major groupings of disabilities, and offers a model for assessment and practice.

The book is organized around four units, each of which addresses one of the areas noted. It is not the purpose of this book to enable the reader to gain expertise in any one disabling condition or impairment. Rather, the goal is to provide a broad base of knowledge and skills, which will enable the reader to work effectively across a variety of disabling conditions.
