Mental Retardation in America includes essays with a wide range of authors who approach the problems of retardation from many differing points of view.

Bell decision, which upheld the opinion on eugenic sterilization; the evolution of the disability rights movement; and the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in 1990.
