Resumen
Esta obra se constituye en un trabajo importante en el que se busca aportar a la problemática actual que vive la sociedad, referida a la brecha existente entre el conocimiento científico y la realidad, en este caso, en el denominado campo de conocimiento de la discapacidad, resultado posiblemente de la falta de trabajo articulado entre la academia, la sociedad y los tomadores de decisiones a nivel político. Los autores conjugan en el texto, elementos de carácter teórico y conceptual validados a nivel internacional, que intercalan con experiencias aplicadas las cuales se constituyen en ejemplos respecto a cómo se puede avanzar hacia la efectiva incorporación del conocimiento científico en diferentes elementos de la sociedad: a nivel de política, del desarrollo de programas y proyectos que logren impactar en la solución de problemáticas reales de la población con discapacidad. Se destaca el carácter interdisciplinar e internacional de abordaje de la temática, brindando una visión amplia del estado de desarrollo del tema en cuestión en especial en la región latinoamericana.
