Book Reviews

Abstract

This current set of reviews contains three distinctly different sources of inspiration and knowledge for the general area of vocational rehabilitation. The first book has been a source of inspiration to reinforce the values I hold for all individuals for whom I provide support. We each need to read first-person accounts of how supports have enabled people with disabilities to lead an enhanced quality of life. I hope Ryan White's story provides an equal source of inspiration for the work in which each of you are engaged. The second resource allows the reader to keep current on the recommendations and advice continuing to evolve from the Rehabilitation Research and Training Center (RRTC) at Virginia Commonwealth University. Dan Steere provides excellent insights for how this information can provide excellent supports for persons with severe disabilities. Finally, a third review contains information for vocational rehabilitation specialists who want resources at their fingertips. There are many such summaries available and I take this opportunity to present one for your inspection.
