• Sommario/riassunto: This book offers a much-needed investigation of moral and political issues concerning disability, in the context of the experiences of people with disabilities. Thirteen new essays examine such topics as the concept of disability, the conditions of justice, the nature of autonomy, healthcare distribution, and reproductive choices.
