Résumé

This provocative and groundbreaking book is the first of its kind to propose the concept of Eco-ability : the intersectionality of the ecological world, persons with disabilities, and nonhuman animals. Rooted in disability studies and rights, environmentalism, and animal advocacy, this book calls for a social justice theory and movement that dismantles constructed "normalcy", ableism, speciesism, and ecological destruction while promoting mutual interdependence, collaboration, respect for difference, and inclusivity of our world.
Eco-ability provides a positive, liberating, and empowering philosophy for educators and activists alike.
