Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The future of disability in America will depend on how well the U.S. prepares for and manages the demographic, fiscal, and technological developments that will unfold during the next two to three decades. Building upon two prior studies from the Institute of Medicine (the 1991 Institute of Medicine's report Disability in America and the 1997 report Enabling America), The Future of Disability in America examines both progress and concerns about continuing barriers that limit the independence, productivity, and participation in community life of people with disabilities. This book offers a comprehensive look at a wide range of issues, including the prevalence of disability across the lifespan; disability trends the role of assistive technology; barriers posed by health care and other facilities with inaccessible buildings, equipment, and information formats; the needs of young people moving from pediatric to adult health care and of adults experiencing premature aging and secondary health problems; selected issues in health care financing (e.g., risk adjusting payments to health plans, coverage of assistive technology); and the organizing and financing of disability-related research. The Future of Disability in America is an assessment of both principles and scientific evidence for disability policies and services. This book's recommendations propose steps to eliminate barriers and strengthen the evidence base for future public and private actions to reduce the impact of disability on individuals, families, and society.

Book excerpt: This book is written to provide a text for our friends in the education world, including the educators who attend our sessions, and those in the technology industry who focus on providing innovative solutions for educating children. As No Child Left Behind moves into its third year, and reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act has finally been accomplished, educators are hard at work putting into practice the mandates of federal legislation. This is not an easy job. It is our hope that this book will provide some help in accomplishing the daunting tasks. It seems to us that the broader key is accessibility. This book strives to create awareness of the unfolding opportunities and challenges for collaboration between educators and technologists, in concert with the current legislation. You will find included a Summary of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, and a Summary of IDEA - 2004 as valuable resources for educators.
