Describes how America's disabled mobilized to effect changes in public policy, not once but twice, and it suggests that the struggle is not yet over. This book surveys the effects and disappointments associated with the Americans with Disabilities Act, passed in 1990, in the context of the movement to secure full civil rights for disabled people.
