By examining the intersection of youth and disability through a critical disability studies lens, Jenny Slater challenges traditional medical and psychological frameworks that have dominated these concepts. The book highlights how normative views of gender and sexuality shape the experiences of young disabled individuals. Slater's interdisciplinary approach reveals the need for a more integrated understanding of these identities, offering fresh insights into the socio-cultural dynamics at play in the lives of young disabled people.
