"The Encyclopedia of Disability" is an award-winning five-volume set from SAGE Reference, awarded Best Reference 2005 award from the "Library Journal" along with an Outstanding Award from the American Library Association's "Booklist journal". It represents the first attempt to bring an authoritative reference resource to the many faces of disability. More than 500 world-renowned scholars have written over 1000 entries, in a clear, accessible style, with the desire to bring all students, researchers, and interested readers closer to the daily experience of disability. The first four volumes cover disability in an A to Z format, including a reader's guide, comprehensive bibliography and index. Volume five contains a wealth of primary source documents in the field of disability, everything from photographs to correspondence to excerpts from movie scripts, and more. Sample entries are available to download from the resources section of the website - click on sample chapters and resources to see more. "The Encyclopedia of Disability" is a must-have reference for all academic libraries, large public libraries and any social science, medical, legal, or governmental reference collections. Non-governmental organizations, charitable foundations and law firms will also want to add this set to their collections.
