| Summary: | What are the differences between individuals with disabilities who flourish and those who never really adjust after a trauma? How do those born with a disability differ from individuals who acquire on later in life? Fully updated and revised, this second edition of a unique rehabilitation counseling text reflects growing disparities among "haves" and "have-nots" as they bear on the psychosocial aspects of disability. Using a minority model perspective, the text provides students and practitioners of rehabilitation and mental health counseling with vivid insight into the experience of living with a disability. It features first-person narratives from people living with a variety of disabling conditions, which are integrated with sociological and societal perspectives toward disability, and strategies for counseling such individuals.--from back cover
