Book Review: Handbook of Disability Studies

Defining Terms
It is intriguing to consider this hefty and valuable volume edited by Albrecht, Seelman and Bury in light of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary's (1993, p. 526) definitions of "Handbook." First, we learn that a handbook is "a book capable of being conveniently carried as a ready reference." If you focus on portability, the term is a colossal misnomer in this case. At more than 850 pages, 8.5" by 11" dimensions, a sturdy hard cover, and weighing in at - well, no, I did not actually weigh it - this book can be conveniently used only by carrying it as little as possible.
Fortunately, I can recommend that you should clear a space on or near your desk for your copy of the Handbook of Disability Studies (henceforth, The Handbook) to remain, serving as a "ready [albeit, nonmobile] reference." The book's physical heft is matched by its intellectual content; thus, it comes closer to meeting the latter half of the dictionary's second definition of "Handbook", i.e., "a concise reference book covering a particular subject." The following review attempts - within the limits of this reader's disciplinary competence applied to a robustly multi-disciplinary compilation - to assess the book's coverage of the domain that has only recently emerged under the rubric "Disability Studies."

    The Dawning of a Society for Disability StudiesiMay 2004)
    Written by Jun Ishikawa, Professor, the International Relations Department, University of Shizuoka, jointly translated by him and Japanese Society for Rehabilitation of Persons with Disabilities The Japan Society for Disability Studies was established in Japan on October 11, 2003, chaired by Jun Ishikawa, a professor at the International Relations Department at University of Shizuoka. Professor Ishikawa, who has a Ph.D. in sociology, is also a blind person. In Japan, disability studies were started in the late 1990s when a book entitled "Shougaigaku e no shoutai (Invitation to Disability Studies)" co-edited by Jun Ishikawa and Osamu Nagase was published. It received a greater-than-expected response from academics and the disability community in Japan. Since then, people's interests in disability studies have been rapidly growing and publications on this field have been gradually increasing.
