Contents:

A discursive psychological approach -- Intellectual disability as diagnostic and social category -- The interactional production of "dispositional" characteristics : or why saying "yes" to one's interrogators may be a smart strategy -- Matters of identity -- Talk to dogs, infants and ... -- A deviant case (written with Alec McHoul) -- Some tentative conclusions.

Summary: This, the first book-length application of discursive psychology to intellectual disability, shows through a range of case studies which draw upon ethnomethodological and conversation analytic scholarship, how persons categorized as 'intellectually disabled' are produced, as such, in and through their moment-by-moment interaction with care staff and other professionals.
