This book explores legislation intended to protect the interests
of people with disabilities or impairments. Considering a broad
range of ethical and legal concerns which arise in issues of life,
death and disability, it covers the social and legal responses to
the equality rights of disabled people, focusing on those responses
to:
- the right to life
- the end of life
- assisted suicide.
This work engages with contemporary debates, examines case
studies and explores the problems surrounding many legal concepts
within the context of disability and impairment. The authors argue
that it is crucial to distinguish between unjust discrimination and
differential treatment and unify the disagreements surrounding the
issues by highlighting ethical ideals that should be shared by all
stakeholders in life and death decisions that impact on people with
disabilities.
Topical and contemporary, this book is a perfect supplementary
text for students of all levels and researchers working in the
areas of law, applied ethics and disability theory.
