Description

Explore the complex relationship between the welfare state and the provision of assistive technology. This book examines how the state acts as a bridge between users and products, treating the matching of devices to individuals as both a science and an art. Many users face challenges when using individually designed assistive technologies, as these tools can sometimes carry a social stigma or reflect subtle discriminatory barriers within society. This text addresses these significant hurdles by looking at how technology impacts social inclusion. By studying the intersection of disability and society, readers gain insight into how to reduce social exclusion and marginalization. The work also examines the importance of minimizing individual risks and the broader societal costs associated with non-integrated technology solutions. This is an essential resource for those studying the social and scientific aspects of assistive device implementation.
