Book Reviews

Abstract

These two publications deserve to be reviewed as a pair. The vision and philosophy of community inclusion is highly evident in both books. In fact, David Schwartz, the author of Crossing the River, wrote the preface in The Whole Community Catalogue. I specifically selected these books for the topic of this issue of the Journal of Vocational Rehabilitation because they provide a clear path for where supports are heading for individuals with disabilities. Family members need to hear people talk of capacities, not limitation; dreams, not goals and objectives; quality of life, not least restrictive environment; and inclusion, not separation. Please share the contents of these two books with the family members and significant people in the lives of the individuals you support.
