Growing numbers of human beings live with profound and multiple
learning difficulties and disabilities. Exploring the moral, social
and political implications of this trend, Valuing Profoundly
Disabled People addresses questions that are high on policy and
practice agendas in numerous regions around the world, including
the UK and the EU, the USA, and Australasia. In this important work
Vorhaus examines fundamental moral and social questions about
profound disability, and each chapter combines a comprehensive
review of existing literature with thought-provoking and original
philosophical arguments. Vorhaus argues that there is a pressing
need to consider the moral and political claims of people whose
lives are characterised by extensive impairments, dependency and
vulnerability. The book prompts readers to reflect on complex
issues relating to the practices of caring, teaching and treating
people with profound disabilities in contexts such as education,
health care and social policy. Providing a much-needed contribution
to the field, this book will be of interest to postgraduates,
academics and researchers in a number of distinct and interrelated
fields, including disability and impairment, human rights,
philosophy, sociology, health and social policy, and education. The
book will also be of great interest to practitioners and
policymakers seeking to promote the aims of realising human
potential and respecting disability.
