Rezensionen
"This book brings out a new voice from the disability studies perspective in the debate regarding human enhancement. Therefore, I heartily recommend this book to everyone interested in ethical issues involved and especially to those that are interested in an intersection between bioethics and disability studies. The book is a great example of how various scientific fields can significantly contribute to the ongoing debate on human enhancement." (Anto Cartolovni, Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics, Vol. 37, 2016)
"An important and welcome development to see a selection of studies that explores how bioethics and disability studies can influence each other to ask new questions." - Disability and Society
