Bøker av Dan Goodley

A long awaited new edition of Dan Goodley's acclaimed introduction to disability studies. A critical, multidisciplinary text used by students and researchers across the social sciences.

Goodley draws on decades of research to argue that disability has much to offer when we contemplate what it means to be human in the 21st Century. He addresses questions such as 'who's allowed to be human?'; 'are human beings dependent?'; and 'what does it mean to be human in the digital age?'

Drawing upon qualitative material from parents and professionals, including ethnography, narrative inquiry, interviews and focus groups, this book brings together feminist and critical disability studies theories.

This volume critically and pragmatically reflects upon the use of life stories in social and educational research. Using four life stories as examples, the authors apply four different, practical approaches to demonstrate effective research and analysis.

Examines the relationship between disability studies and psychology. By illuminating the interpersonal, social, cultural, historical and political causes of 'disability', this book proposes ideas for enabling psychological theory and practice.
