Summary: Econonomic Development
Comment: I have not only read Cary and Daves book I have successfully implemented these strategies to support people with a wide range of disabilities to attain and succesfully maintain self-employment ventures. Thier ability to be inventive and to time and time again help the disability community move from scarcity thinking into economic development always amazes me.

Summary: Disapointing
Comment: This book is vaguley geared to thoose with disabilites. I would find this useful if I was in a wheel chair or had another obstacle. However having a pain disorder the book read to me of that of "NORMAL" healthy people. Wasted my limited money.

Summary: I think I get it now!
Comment: I recently read "Making self-employment work for people with disabilities." Some of the leg work that needed to be done up front made immediate sense to me. Some was still puzzling. After a training session I read the book over and it became crystal clear. This book makes you step out of your comfort zone and ask and answer the hard questions. Some of it makes you view the world of work and working as a business in itself. Especially, business from a banker or rehabilitation agency view point. Sometimes, this viewpoint gets lost in the shuffle of trying to help a person with a disability start a viable business. Key word here: viable. After all a well written business plan helps start the business off on the right foot. Keep guiding us Cary.
