I'd like to be able to respond--what's the secret handshake? Meanwhile, I had cc'd xmca on this to Eugene. Maybe you can put it on for me? Thanks, Don
Eugene & others: You and others interested in this discussion and Ray's work may also want to look at Varenne & McDermott (1999), Successful failure: The school America builds. Boulder, CO: Westview. The book includes a further discussion of 'Adam,' the kid in the "Acquisition of a child by a learning disability," in a chapter called "Adam, Adam, Adam, and Adam: The cultural construction of a learning disability" and "Disability as a cultural fact," along with articles that address other culturally constructed forms of 'failure.' I strongly recommend it.
