He shows how such images construct disabled people as creatures,' the tragic-but-brave objects of photographic gaze, or as the 'appy andicapped' of positive imagery' advertising. As a disabled photographer and writer, David Hevey has been a pioneer in challenging such visual representations of disabled people. His work advocates a move away from medical, charity or impairment-fixated imagery towards a visual equivalent of Rights not Charity'. The book outlines David Hevey's own photographic practice and includes wide-ranging selections from his work to create a visual form which reflects the new social presence of disabled people. This book will be of interest to students of media studies, cultural studies, and disability studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNew Preface List of Plates Foreword Acknowledgements\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cb\u003e1. \u003c\/b\u003eIntroduction \u003cb\u003e2. \u003c\/b\u003eSocial life or medical death? \u003cb\u003e3. \u003c\/b\u003eThe creatures time forgot: Into the grotto of charity advertising \u003cb\u003e4. \u003c\/b\u003eThe creatures time forgot: Out of the grotto \u003cb\u003e5. \u003c\/b\u003eThe enfreakment of photography \u003cb\u003e6. \u003c\/b\u003eFrom angst to anger: the mechanics of idealism \u003cb\u003e7. \u003c\/b\u003eRevolt of the species!
