The Most Important Source

Sometimes, in a research project, you come across that one book. You know the one I'm talking about. It's the one source that seems like a light shining in darkness when you previously had encountered only fragments of useful information.

That one book for me was the Disability Studies Reader. I think why I liked it so much was because before reading sections of it, I didn't really understand disability studies beyond the surface level. It also had expert authors featured in it, like Goffman that I talked about last entry, and Simi Linton who is a prominent writer in disability studies.

I think this was my best source by far, and contained a lot of quotable material.

That's all I have for now, so until next time, cheers.
