It is designed to meet the needs of scholars, government officials, non-governmental organizations, and advocates for persons with disabilities and the general public. The work captures the dynamics of political and philosophical trends that have given shape to the international effort to advance the status of persons with disabilities, based on their full participation in society and equalization of opportunities in all aspects of development.
