Críticas:

«This book makes a timely and important attempt to speak to those in the arts, the social sciences, and the humanities who focus on disability studies. The important potential of the book's purpose is matched by an excellence of content and analysis across the individual chapters in that its contributions offer new insights about children with disabilities and their education. The volume fills a void and should land on the desk of every professor who teaches and writes on any flavor of foundations of education. Finally, and for me most promising and important, the book speaks to those in education theory and critical studies who persist in ignoring disability as a concept and special education as a system.» (Philip M. Ferguson, E. Desmond Lee Professor for the Education of Children with disabilities)
«Slippery shibboleths, token economies, kynicism, disability as an aesthetic: this indispensable collection explicates key concepts and in so doing demonstrates why we (regardless our specialization) must study disability.» (William F. Pinar, St. Bernard Parish Alumni Endowed Professor, Louisiana State University)
