Description:

Based on fieldwork in Bai Township, this book examines how women with disabilities in rural Southwest China compensate for their disability identity through marriage. As the first book to theorize the married life of rural women with disabilities, it traces the process from mate selection to wedding ceremony, fertility and role performance.
