coupla' more cites...

...I'd like to add to that wonderful bibliography Kristin generated; these 3 pieces have been
very important to me in teaching all sorts of courses about category-making and -bending:

Institute for the Study of the Neurologically Typical

Culture as Disability
, by Ray McDermott and Hervé Varenne

--as well as a follow-up essay (generated by Paul Grobstein's question, "can
there be a culture which does NOT disable/disadvantage ANYONE in it?")

Extra burdens in the search for new openings; on the inevitablity of cultural disabilities," by Hervé Varenne
