Many disabled people suffer from handicaps that require them to be institutionalized and prevent them from being full-fledged members of society, i.e. working and living autonomously. Doctor Hélène Bost-Hourticq has been defending these 'meek' people, who are too often overlooked, if not deliberately forgotten, for decades. This book, which was her idea, is intended as a response to real concerns about integration. It portrays the reality of disabled people’s lives through Jean-Louis Courtinat’s beautiful and moving photos.
