Omschrijving
"This is a splendid book: written in bracing, plain English, it presents a conception of what a just society for people with disabilities might look like . . . The book combines impressive scholarship with a resolutely practical focus on the experience of injustice; it is packed with lucid argument—no trace of obfuscation—and proceeds by way of engagement with philosophy of disability, human rights law and some moral and political philosophy. The scope, acuity and consistently high standard of the arguments make this a work that anyone concerned about the conditions and rights of disabled people can learn a great deal from." – Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
"This important book represents the best of recent work in disability and philosophy. It is grounded in urgent practical concerns, rigorously argued, and engagingly written. It makes a major contribution to the field with an integrated account of justice for people with disabilities, in which distributive fairness and equal status both play critical roles. In developing this account, Barclay offers a trenchant analysis of dignity as equal status, an analysis she employs to ground important disability rights, and to illuminate the routine social interactions that profoundly affect the status and prospects of people with disabilities. Although the book focuses on disability, its analyses of relational justice and dignity make a significant addition to the broader literature in political and moral philosophy." – David Wasserman, The Department of Bioethics, National Institute of Health
