This timely and empirically rigorous intervention is the first study to focus on disability and political representation in the UK. The authors bring together perspectives from political science and disability studies, and draw upon methodologically diverse empirical data, much of it original. In so doing, they challenge dominant understandings of representation in theory and practice that marginalise and exclude disabled people. Beautifully written and clearly argued for both generalist and specialist reader, it deftly avoids getting mired in definitional disputes and theoretical dead-ends. At its core is an ethical stance which centres the experiences of disabled people and seeks to produce useful knowledge with real world implications for policy change, public understanding, and improvements to democratic politics.
