Analyses the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on people with disabilities and on the ADA’s enforcement
Highlights concerns as well as positive legal and social developments for people with disabilities

This Advanced Introduction will be essential reading for students and scholars of disability law, discrimination law, health law, human rights, and law and society. It will also be beneficial for advocates for disability rights in public and private institutions, as well as researchers addressing disability issues.
