"Bringing together a number of specialist disciplines, such as archaeology, history, anthropology, disability studies, mental health and psychiatry, this work provides a new perspective on social and physical exclusion from society.

Also discussed are the emotional and intellectual effects of social and/or physical exclusion on those who are subjected to it in contemporary society."

"This is a study that breaks down traditional academic disciplinary boundaries by adopting a comparative perspective and time dimension.
