This resource features contributions from 13 different experts on the distinctions between disability theory and research practice. It is also an extensive critique of traditional approaches to disability. Each chapter covers a range of relevent topics including: an introduction to doing disability research; funding for change; translating emancipatory disability research from theory to practice; and involving disabled people in research: a study of inclusion in environmental activities. This work would be particularly useful for anyone with an interest in disability theory/practice and inclusion
