ABOUT THIS BOOK
When Jamie Bérubé was born with Down syndrome in 1991, he was immediately subject to the
medical procedures, insurance guidelines, policies, and representations that surround every child our society
designates as disabled. In this wrenching yet ultimately inspiring book, Jamie's father, literary scholar Michael
Bérubé, describes not only the challenges of raising his son but the challenge of seeing him as a person
rather than as a medical, genetic, or social problem.
