Abstract
This book review of Humanizing Disability in Mathematics Education: Forging New Paths highlights the main contributions of a bold and unique book that dares shine a light on traditional dehumanizing mathematics education of disabled students. The review found the theoretical contributions offered by the authors to be an excellent foundation for mathematics educators and special education specialists to shift the paradigm in their classrooms to one where the mathematics of students with disabilities is at the focus. However, this review found the practical applications of these theories to be somewhat lacking.
