The editors at Disability Studies Quarterly (DSQ) are pleased to announce
the release of the Fall 2005 issue!
This issue features several papers in areas of general scholarship, as well
as part 2 of the theme issue, "Freakery," guest edited by Michael Chemers,
and part 1 of the theme issue, "Emerging Issues in the Study of Disability
Policy & Law," guest edited by Peter Blanck.
In addition, we present the usual wealth of commentaries and reviews, and
also include a special section eulogizing the sorely missed disability
rights activist and author, Frieda Zames.
