I haven't actually read it myself yet, though I do own it and it's probably next on my list.
Most of what I've read have been interviews with the author or disability rights blog reviews. From all of that, I gather that what he was trying to get across was that disability is meaningless and defining people by disability in school is wrong. (Not saying anything about my opinions on the topic.)
Sounds like he didn't do as good a job at it as he'd hoped. Then again, as you say, is there anything better out there?
