As the publication date for The Bloomsbury Guide to Philosophy of Disability approaches, the anticipation that I and the contributors to this pathbreaking collection feel continues to grow.

I have now finalized an absolutely stunning cover for the book with the design team at Bloomsbury. I will present that book cover to you in due course.

In the meantime, I want to share with you two more endorsements for The Bloomsbury Guide to Philosophy of Disability that we have received. These endorsements come from Miranda Fricker and Havi Carel.

Here’s what Fricker and Carel say about the book:

A fascinating and wide-ranging collection of papers challenging all of us who do philosophy—in any of its subfields—to pay more sustained attention to the different disabled perspectives that may dislodge old habits of thought and invigorate new ones.

– Miranda Fricker, Silver Professor of Philosophy, New York University, USA

This is a lively and wide-ranging collection of essays, offering an enlightening and poignant up-to-date snapshot of the philosophy of disability. The volume showcases a range of philosophical approaches and topics, examining disability and its relationship with philosophy from a variety of angles, which illuminate this new field.

–  Havi Carel, Professor of Philosophy, University of Bristol and author of Illness: the Cry of the Flesh
