The Faces Of Intellectual Disability written by Licia Carlson and has been published by Indiana University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009-12-22 with Philosophy categories.

In a challenge to current thinking about cognitive impairment, this book explores what it means to treat people with intellectual disabilities in an ethical manner. Reassessing philosophical views of intellectual disability, Licia Carlson shows how we can affirm the dignity and worth of intellectually disabled people first by ending comparisons to nonhuman animals and then by confronting our fears and discomforts. Carlson presents the complex history of ideas about cognitive disability, the treatment of intellectually disabled people, and social and cultural reactions to them. Sensitive and clearly argued, this book offers new insights on recent trends in disability studies and philosophy.

American infatuation with the 1920s continues. As the time interval since that decade gets longer, interest grows greater. Were the Twenties a "side show," a quaint but irrelevant detour off the main road of history highlighted by The Lost Generation, Prohibition, The Golden Age of Sport, and The Jazz Age? Or were they, on the contrary, the first clear evidence of what we mean by "modern?" In this new study, Paul A. Carter brings together a collection of provocative opinion and material to provide fresh insight into the real nature of this vivid decade in American history. While many of the names in the book -- Dewey, DeVoto, Lewis, and Mumford -- are familiar, the selections chosen to represent their views and ideas are not taken from the same old stockpile. Professor Carter focuses on the issues that Americans in the Twenties had to deal with in their everyday lives. He avoids the usual generalizations that emphasize the bizarre and singular. The result for today's reader is a balanced account which is perhaps a step closer to life in the Twenties as it really was and not as we imagine it might have been--Back cover.

This ground-breaking rhetorical analysis examines a 1987 Massachusetts law affecting infertility treatment and the cultural context that makes such a law possible Elizabeth C. Britt uses a Massachusetts statute requiring insurance coverage for infertility as a lens through which the work of rhetoric in complex cultural processes can be better understood. Countering the commonsensical notion that mandatory insurance coverage functions primarily to relieve the problem of infertility, Britt argues instead that the coverage serves to expose its contours. Britt finds that the mandate, operating as a technology of normalization, helps to identify the abnormal (the infertile) and to create procedures by which the abnormal can be subjected to reform. In its role in normalizing processes, the mandate is more successful when it sustains, rather than resolves, the distinction between the normal and the abnormal. This distinction is achieved in part by the rhetorical mechanism of the double bind. For the middle-class white women who are primarily served by the mandate, these double binds are created both by the desire for success, control, and order and by adherence to medical models that often frustrate these same desires. The resulting double binds help to create and sustain the tension between fertility and infertility, order and discontinuity, control and chaos, success and failure, tensions that are essential for the process of normalization to continue. Britt uses extensive interviews with women undergoing fertility treatments to provide the foundation for her detailed analysis. While her study focuses on the example of infertility, it is also more broadly a commentary on the power of definition to frame experience, on the burdens and responsibilities of belonging to social collectives, and on the ability of rhetorical criticism to interrogate cultural formations.
