Two New Disability Books

Just across my desk: Martha Nussbaum's new book, Frontiers of Justice: Disability, Nationality, Species Membership (2006); and the edited volume Critical Disability Theory: Essays in Philosophy, Politics, Policy, and Law (2005). Nussbaum is the one fancy political theorist (or at least the fanciest) who takes disability issues seriously, and the Critical Disability Theory volume has articles on an array of interesting topics.
