About this product
Product Information
In Able-Bodied, acclaimed psychologist Leslie Swartz explores the subject of disability through a personal narrative about his life and his relationship with his own disabled father. While Swartz has dealt with disability in an academic manner in his professional work, this title views it through the lens of memoir. At the heart of the story is a moving account of a complex, troubled, but loving father-son relationship, a relationship that spurred a lifetime of trying to understand and come to grips with what different bodies and different abilities mean for us all. Poignant and often hilarious, this is a tale of conflict, achievement, pain and triumph. Able-Bodied is a fascinating blend of personal narrative and reflection on society, medicine and ethics.

- a***o (684)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent condition for its age (better than the picture)! Very good pricing. Delivery time was amazing- 3 days through Fed Express. I was worried Fed Express package would not prevent book from getting wet today, but I was wrong. Very, very well packaged. Inside the envelope it was in a cardboard container and inside that it was wrapped in plastic. Book is perfect. Very happy and would not hesitate to buy from her again.
