Abstract
After a distinguished career as a professor at Emory University and San Diego State University, this left-handed author-whose mother was also a southpaw-examines left-handedness in the context of studies that have contested the classifications and meanings of disability, forcing researchers to re-examine their assumptions and attitudes about disability while challenging public policies aimed at them.
在埃默里大学(Emory University)和圣地亚哥州立大学(San Diego State University)担任过杰出的教授之后,这位左撇子作家——他的母亲也是左撇子——在对残疾的分类和含义进行争论的研究背景下研究了左撇子,迫使研究人员在挑战针对残疾人的公共政策的同时,重新审视他们对残疾的假设和态度。
