Disability studies and the environmental humanities : toward an eco-crip theory
Sarah Jaquette Ray (Editor, Writer of introduction), Jay Sibara (Editor, Writer of introduction), Stacy Alaimo
"Although scholars in the environmental humanities have been exploring the dichotomy between "wild" and "built" environments for several years, few have focused on the field of disability studies, a discipline that enlists the contingency between environments and bodies as a foundation of its scholarship. On the other hand, scholars in disability studies have demonstrated the ways in which the built environment privileges some bodies and minds over others, yet they have rarely examined the ways in which toxic environments engender chronic illness and disability or how environmental illnesses disrupt dominant paradigms for scrutinizing disability."--Amazon.com
