"Designing Disability traces the emergence of an idea and an ideal, physical access for the disabled through the evolution of the iconic International Symbol of Access (ISA). The book draws on design history, material culture and recent critical disability studies to examine not only the development of a design icon, but also the cultural history surrounding it."--Publisher's description.
