'This pioneering book weaves together international human rights law as well as international humanitarian and refugee law in order to address the plight of an estimated 10 million disabled refugees in the world. It tracks the steady evolution of international humanitarian and refugee law to keep pace with the insights and new standards in the UN convention on the rights of persons with disabilities, complementing legal analysis with a detailed and highly accessible examination of the situation on the ground. This work will endure as the standard reference work on refugees with disabilities, opening up a new field and doubtlessly attracting many others to contribute to it. It has a major role to play in framing a reform agenda to narrow the gap between the majestic generalities of the UN disability treaty and the actual living conditions of many millions of persons with disabilities.' --Gerard Quinn, National University of Ireland'At a time when the whole world is in an emotional state about refugees, with escalating polarization and discrimination, it is easy to invoke antagonistic feelings about the ''other''. Sadly, our ideal of "living together" is being replaced by the word ''security'' each day and it is time we remember that there is another side to security. This is why I am honored to endorse this great book by Crock, Smith-Khan, McCallum and Saul; for reminding us of the protection issues and rights of refugees with disabilities, making them visible again. This book does not only provide a rich variety of field findings, identifying the complex issues related to forced displacement and disability in the field, but also offers great guidance on how to overcome these challenges through the utilization of international law.' --Safak Pavey, MP, Turkish Parliament and former member of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities
