Two million people in the UK live with sight loss, and many more worldwide. Yet the general population knows very little about the day-to-day life of the blind, who must move through a world not designed with them in mind, from city planning and technology, to pop culture and education. What’s more, blind people often fall off the pages of our history books, despite being some of the most prolific figures in their fields.

Oliver Sacks widmet sich in seinem neuen Werk dem Zusammenhang von visueller Wahrnehmung und Bewusstsein. Es gelingt ihm wieder, komplexe Dinge verständlich zu beschreiben. Das Außergewöhnliche: Sacks schildert, wie er selbst 2005 an einem bösartigen Tumor im Auge erkrankte. Er berichtet vom Leben mit dem Krebs und dem Verlust seiner visuellen Fähigkeiten. Doch er entdeckt auch "positive" Phänomene: milde Illusion, Halluzinationen, Veränderungen in der Wahrnehmung von Farben und Umrissen.

Da Rosa bliver født i en lille provinsby i slutningen af 1800-tallet, er hendes muligheder i livet allerede yderst begrænsede. Hun er pige i et mandsdomineret samfund, men ydermere har hun et medfødt handicap - hun er med datidens sprogbrug vanfør. Vi følger først Rosas tilværelse som barn i provinsen, hvor hun møder stor fordømmelse fra omgivelserne, fordi hun er anderledes. Siden hører vi om hendes ophold på et vanførehjem i København. Romanen beretter både om de dårlige vilkår, mennesker med handicap havde i slutningen af det 19.

Prison abolition and decarceration are increasingly debated, but it is often without taking into account the largest exodus of people from carceral facilities in the 20th century: the closure of disability institutions and psychiatric hospitals. Decarcerating Disability provides a much-needed corrective, combining a genealogy of deinstitutionalization with critiques of the current prison system.

Creating a force called lift, counteracting the outside energy that would otherwise pull her down, that is the way Anna Gouker spends her days. Anna understands the importance of an elevated focus. This enables her to reach higher than the outside world may say is within her grasp. Anna has a degenerative muscle weakness that persists throughout her body, requiring her to depend greatly on technology - like the ventilator that helps her breathe while she sleeps and the motorized wheelchair that moves her through the world.

Despite the progress of decades-old disability rights policy, including the landmark Americans with Disabilities Act, threats continue to undermine the well-being of this population. The U.S. is, thus, a policy innovator and laggard in this regard. In Politics of Empowerment, David Pettinicchio offers a historically grounded analysis of the singular case of U.S. disability policy, countering long-held views of progress that privilege public demand as its primary driver.
