Scholars of theology and ethics in the US and Europe offer Christian perspectives on what should be considered normal for humans, and on approaches to people who are deemed deficient. Their topics include Augustine's hierarchies of human wholeness and their healing, seeing with Julian of Norwich, Kierkegaard and the abilities and disabilities of subjectivity, Bonhoeffer and the war over disabled life, and Stanley Hauerwas on disability.
