Annotation: 

This site discusses some of the ways people have thought about and treated persons with disabilities through history. The site is composed of thirteen brief chapters with images, recipes for curing disability, and photographs. Subjects addressed include attitudes toward individuals with disabilities, medical treatment and legislation. The final page provides an update on the the system of rehabilitation services for Americans with disabilities in 2000.
