Psychosocial Aspects of Disability

The third edition of this textbook continues to emphasize the direct connection between attitudinal and environmental barriers to the disabled, while updating earlier volumes with chapters on employment, ethnic groups and issues for the 21st century. Henderson (human relations, U. of Oklahoma) and Bryan (health promotion sciences, U. of Oklahoma) have incorporated discussion points and activities in each chapter and appendices with resources, recreation associations, medical terminology, a quiz and a sample of famous people with disabilities.
