The Experience of Disability.
Hastings, Elizabeth
Australian Journal of Developmental Disabilities, v7 n3 p107-12 Sep 1981
The author outlines the experiences of disability and demonstrates that generally unpleasant experiences are the direct result of a basic and false assumption on the part of society. Experiences of the disabled are discussed in areas the author categorizes as exclusion or segregation, deprivation, prejudice, poverty, frustration, and powerlessness. (SB)
