Bezzina makes it very clear that the book is not intended to be a comprehensive history of the Maltese disability sector, but principally a record of KNPD’s early days and its 25-year development into a strong, national force for change. What the book is, is a monument to an informal social movement, which brought about a silent revolution in the way disabled people are regarded and the way policies in the disability sector are tackled by Maltese society.

Over and above this, it is also a sincere expression of respect towards, and appreciation of, the innumerable people whose quiet, constant support, within and without KNPD, contributed in no small measure to bringing about a paradigm shift in the quality of life of disabled people in Malta.
