DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES

Exploring the three main forms of monism—physicalism, idealism, and neutral monism—this book delves into the philosophical underpinnings of mind and matter. It contrasts traditional views of disability as a physiological deficit with contemporary social models that highlight the impact of environmental and social barriers on individuals' functional limitations. This examination invites readers to reconsider the nature of reality and the complexities of disability, emphasizing the interplay between mind, matter, and societal constructs.
