The Story of Us is more than a history book-it's a tribute to resilience, dignity, and love. Written with clarity and compassion by Joel Carson, this reader-friendly journey traces the evolution of developmental disabilities from ancient times to modern inclusion. Through seven heartfelt chapters, readers will explore: - The forgotten lives of people with disabilities before laws existed. - The rise and fall of institutions-and the fight for justice. - Landmark legislation that changed lives forever. - Clear definitions and facts that foster understanding. - The voices of self-advocates, caregivers, and allies. - Breakthroughs in technology, education, and community living. - A legacy of care giving, storytelling, and faith that continues to uplift. With a glossary of key terms, a spotlight on the NADSP, and a dedication to Direct Support Professionals, this book honors those who walk beside-and those who lead the way. Whether you're a caregiver, educator, advocate, or simply curious, The Story of Us invites you to learn, reflect, and celebrate the beauty of every life. Because history isn't just about what happened-it's about who we choose to become.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In the 1970s, an age long before World Cups, rugby union to the British public meant Bill McLaren, rude songs and, most of all, Wales. Between 1969 and 1979, the men in red shirts won or shared eight Five Nations Championships, including three Grand Slams and six Triple Crowns. But the mere facts resonate less than the enduring images of the precision of Gareth Edwards, the sublime touch of Barry John, the sidesteps of Gerald Davies and Phil Bennett, the courage of J.P.R. Williams, and the forward power of the Pontypool Front Row and 'Merv the Swerve' Davies. To the land of their fathers, these Welsh heroes represented pride and conquest at a time when the decline of the province's traditional coal and steel industries was sending thousands to the dole queue and threatening the fabric of local communities. Yet the achievements of those players transcended their homeland and extended beyond mere rugby fans. With the help of comedian Max Boyce, the culture of Welsh rugby and valley life permeated Britain's living rooms at the height of prime time, reinforcing the sporting brilliance that lit up winter Saturday afternoons. In Nobody Beats Us, David Tossell, who spent the '70s as a schoolboy scrum-half trying to perfect the Gareth Edwards reverse pass, interviews many of the key figures of a golden age of Welsh rugby and vividly recreates an unforgettable sporting era. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Artikel-Nr. GOR002449849
