I encourage the readers to take in multiple texts within this book. Listen to the multiplicities of voices and perspectives; prepare yourself to challenge mainstream notions of the handicapped as well as popular notions in the West about inclusion and disability. You'll learn about African cultural contexts and find perspectives here that you can use to support disabled people wherever you live. -- Against the Current
