It will be very useful in introductory disability studies classes, while it is also sophisticated enough to advance scholarship and clarify thought in the field. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower- and upper-division undergraduates. Graduate students and faculty. J. L. Croissant, University of Arizona, USA Representations of disability in media are densely layered phenomena, extending far beyond a screen. This collection gives nuanced attention to the accessibility, contexts, and tropes of disability representations around the world. It enriches what we think we know, and points to areas in which students and scholars of disability and media alike couldand shouldknow more. Assistant Professor Elizabeth Ellcessor, Department of Media Studies, University of Virginia, USA This exciting, timely and readable text brings together established and emerging scholars to seek connections and, as importantly, reveal tensions between media and disability studies. The centrality of the body as a subject and object of analysis means that this book will be of interest to readers from a myriad of disciplines across the human and social sciences, arts and humanities. Professor Dan Goodley, iHuman, University of Sheffield, UK
