Making Disability Modern: Design Histories brings together leading scholars from a range of disciplinary and national perspectives to examine how designed objects and spaces contributes to the meanings of ability and disability from the late 18th century to the present day, and in homes, offices, and schools to realms of national and international politics.

But it also aims to make clear that definitions of disability-and ability-are often shaped by design.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
