‘Research Handbook on Disability Policy edited by Sally Robinson and Karen R. Fisher is a timely and important contribution to the emerging literature on disability, human rights and social policy. Grounded in the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the volume explores issues of human rights, welfare, health and economic inclusion from an impressive range of scholars including strong representation from the Global South. Each section starts with the lived experience of persons with disabilities through short essays, poems and reflections which helps the reader remember these are not simply policies, but pathways to a life of equality and inclusion. This Handbook is a vast and deep compendium which is required for all library and disability scholars’ shelves.’
