What is particularly impressive is Lewis’s ability not only to present all the essential facts of disability but at the same time to convey what it is like to be disabled. . . .The book is thus scholarly and at the same time human, and will be found invaluable by all who in any way care about children with disabilities.” \u003ci\u003eProfessor Rudolph Schaffer, University of Strathclyde\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e“The study of children with conditions such as blindness, deafness and autism is immensely important and revealing.
