This Handbook represents the first comprehensive collection of research on communication and people with disabilities. The editors have brought together original contributions focusing on the identity, social, and relationship adjustments faced by people with disabilities and those with whom they relate. Essays report on topics across the communication spectrum--interpersonal and relationship issues, people with disabilities in organizational settings, disability and culture, media and technologies, communication issues as they impact specific types of disabilities--and establish a future agenda for communication and disability research. Each chapter provides a state-of-the-art literature review, practical applications of the material, and keywords and discussion questions to facilitate classroom use.

In providing an outlet for current research on communication and disability issues, this unique collection contributes to the lives of people with and without disabilities, helping them to improve their own communication and relationships. Intended for readers in communication, psychology, sociology, rehabilitation, social work, special education, gerontology, and related disciplines, this handbook is certain to augment further theory and research, as well as offer insights for both personal and professional relationships.

Recenzii

"This book can truly be said to be one of a kind....anyone who reads the entire book will come away with a better understanding of the many nuances, issues, and practicalities involved in successful interactions between those with and without disabilities."
Disability Studies Quarterly
"...the first comprehensive collection of communication research concerning the disabled....the editors have done all of us a service with this handbook of research findings and questions as yet unanswered."
Communication Booknotes Quarterly
"Handbook of Communication and People With Disabilities is a landmark book....[it] will be useful to scholars interested in communication questions around disability, for it provides a valuable sampling of many of the kinds of work that communication scholars are doing in this area. It will be of particular value as a textbook for the growing number of classes exploring communication and disability. More importantly, however, the book makes a significant contribution to disability studies because it highlights communication as a crucial factor in the social construction of disability."
Health Communication
"This groundbreaking collection stands as an important accomplishment for scholars in communication disciplines whose work engages issues related to disability and begins to fill a significant void in communication research....Readers...will be rewarded with a wealth of serious scholarship and critical insight."
The Southern Communication Journal
