The Oxford Handbook of Positive Psychology and Disability

This expanded and updated volume assembles chapters by leading scholars in the fields of disability and positive psychology to provide a comprehensive synthesis of the state of the combined field of positive psychology and disability. Disability has always been associated with "differentness" and, consequently, people with disabilities have, throughout time, been treated as such. By examining disability from a strengths-based perspective, this volume provides a catalyst to accelerate the application of positive psychology with regard to how disability is understood.
