This selection of essays is important representation of disability and the many forms it can take. Each perspective brings something a little different to the conversation and I find that Wong did well in editing and choosing the order of them. That said, this is a hard read for anyone who is disabled or has a disabled loved one. Some of the essays are a brutal look at eugenics, ableism and more.
