Disability and Discourse applies and explains Conversation
Analysis (CA), an established methodology for studying
communication, to explore what happens during the everyday
encounters of people with intellectual disabilities and the other
people with whom they interact.
* Explores conversations and encounters from the lives of people
with intellectual disabilities
* Introduces the established methodology of Conversation
Analysis, making it accessible and useful to a wide range of
students, researchers and practitioners
* Adopts a discursive approach which looks at how people with
intellectual disabilities use talk in real-life situations, while
showing how such talk can be supported and developed
* Follows people into the meetings and discussions that take
place in self-advocacy and research contexts
* Offers insights into how people with learning disabilities can
have a voice in their own affairs, in policy-making, and in
research
