Description

Explore the history of employment for visually impaired individuals through this essential academic text from Routledge. Part of the Interdisciplinary Disability Studies series, this book tracks the evolution of paid work in the UK from the 18th century to the modern era. Unlike much of the existing literature, this work prioritizes the lived experiences of visually impaired people. It provides a platform for individuals to discuss their professional journeys, offering a perspective that is often missing from studies on visual impairment and employment. By documenting these personal accounts, the book offers a unique look at how work has changed over centuries. Through the analysis of fifty in-depth, face-to-face interviews, readers gain access to diverse narratives. The text covers a wide spectrum of professional roles, ranging from traditional occupations like piano tuning, physiotherapy, and telephony to contemporary employment. This book serves as a vital resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in the sociology of disability and the history of labor.
