Construction de soi et handicap mental explores how individuals with intellectual disabilities develop a sense of self within familial, social, and institutional contexts. Authored by G. Zribi, the volume draws on clinical observations and theoretical frameworks to examine identity formation, self‑esteem, and the impact of environmental support. Published in 2000 by Éditions de l'École Nationale de la Santé Publique, the book is written in French and spans approximately 223 pages. It addresses themes such as personal agency, social integration, and the role of caregivers in fostering autonomy. The work is intended for professionals in psychology, special education, and social work, as well as for families seeking insight into the lived experience of mental disability. By combining empirical data with reflective narrative, the text offers a nuanced perspective on the interplay between disability and self‑construction.
