Summary:	This book reviews classic and current scholarship on the experience of disability, emphasizing interactions between persons with disabilities (PWD) and non-disabled people. With respect to the treatment and counseling of PWDs, social psychological approaches aim to avoid biased, simplistic, and prejudicial conclusions by putting people first--not their disabilities. The book is aimed at students and professionals, though it will also help families, caregivers, and policy-makers understand the social psychology of disability.
