Despite the recent increased interest in women's health, little has been written about and for disabled women. This outstanding new source meets a genuine need by providing an overview of all aspects of women's lives and how disability affects them as workers, homemakers, parents, and caregivers. Necessities such as driving, obtaining adequate medical care, enjoying recreation and travel, as well as personal concerns related to sexuality, pregnancy, and childbirth are all addressed. The guide covers federal laws, housing, coping with daily activities at home and in the workplace and the most common conditions that disable women: arthritis, diabetes, epilepsy, lupus, multiple sclerosis, osteoporosis, and spinal cord injury. Each chapter contains a bibliography or sources cited in the text, a referral list of organizations, and a resource list of books, audio- and videotapes, and vendors of assistive devices. Quotes from disabled women illustrate their coping skills and the impact of their conditions on their lives. -Barbara M. Bibel, Oakland P.L., Cal. -Library Journal.

This comprehensive volume provides the knowledge and skills that mental health professionals need for more effective, informed work with clients with disabilities. Combining her extensive knowledge as a clinician, researcher, and teacher with her personal experience as someone with a disability, Olkin provides an insider's perspective on critical issues that are often overlooked in training. A lucid conceptual framework is presented for understanding disability as a minority experience, one that is structured by social, legal, and attitudinal constraints as well as physical challenges. Illuminating frequently encountered psychosocial themes and concerns, chapters describe a range of approaches to dealing with disability issues in the treatment of adults, children, and families. Topics addressed include etiquette with clients with disabilities; special concerns in assessment, evaluation, and diagnosis; the impact of disability on sexuality and romance, as well as pregnancy, birthing, and parenting; the use of assistive technology and devices; disability and substance abuse; and more. Filled with clinical examples and observations, the volume also discusses strategies for enhancing teaching, training, and research.
