Description
The Sixth Edition of Disability Law provides a comprehensive overview of the major laws relating to discrimination against individuals with disabilities. It takes a broad approach to understanding how disability discrimination laws apply to the kinds of cases attorneys, policymakers, and judges are likely to face, including cases on harassment and retaliation based on disability. The book includes many of the selected cases, problems, questions, and statutory and regulatory references from the Fifth Edition, along coverage of recent developments that reflects recent regulatory and judicial decisions. New features include an introductory overview and chapter goals, definitions of key terms within each chapter, and chapter summaries. The Teacher¿s Manual and web-related materials include additional hypotheticals, skills exercises, and enrichment materials. A companion book, Disability Law Statutory Appendix: Federal Statutes and Regulations, includes the statutory language of Americans with Disabilities Act as amended, as well as regulations for Titles I, II, and III. The Statutory Appendix includes the disability provisions of the Fair Housing Act Amendments and regulations. Also included are the Familty and Medical Leave Act, and Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. The Statutory Appendix also contains Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and model regulations.
