In 1990 a landmark piece of legislation was passed by Congress. The
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was based on the idea that
equal rights can solve social problems associated with disability.
Few acts have sparked as much debate in recent years, with many
employers and programme providers protesting - and litigating -
against the burdensome costs of the act. On the other side, many of
the Americans with disabilities and their advocates claim that the
ADA doesn't do enough, that only the most highly functioning
disabled people benefit. "Americans with Disabilities" looks at the
debate and seeks to shed light on who is right. Philosophers, legal
theorists, bioethicists and policy makers offer incisive looks into
the philosophical and moral foundations of disability law and
policy. A thought-provoking analysis of one of the most
controversial laws on the books, "Americans with Disabilities"
provides a keen understanding of how much US law does - and should
- protect citizens with disabilities against intolerance and social
limitation.
