Second Edition

I'm very pleased to say that 'The Politics of Down Syndrome' has been selling well enough to warrant a second edition in 2012. This is where I need your help. Firstly, I'm very aware that the first edition has a number of proofing & editorial errors - mostly my own, secondly there is an opportunity to include a couple more chapters.

If there are errors you've spotted I'd really appreciate it if you let me know what page they're on and what they are so I can submit them for correction - thank you!

In terms of extra content, I was thinking of a chapter on the search for 'cures' and the ethics of medical solutions to Down syndrome, with possibly something on learning disability activism/activists. However I'd be very interested in your ideas on what you'd like to see. Again, thank you, and thank you all for your support in 2011.
