| A Theological Diagnosis : A New Direction on Genetic Therapy, 'Disability' and the Ethics of Healing As society becomes progressively dominated by an ideology of healthy living, Matt Edmonds makes a vital critique of contemporary efforts to remove 'disability' from the world around us. Surveying the logic and language of both secular and religious health movements, Edmonds highlights the misplaced generalisations and dubious values that cumulatively serve to undermine individual inclusion and well-being on a day-to-day basis. Matt Edmonds is a writer, theorist and theologian with degrees from both Oxford and Cambridge University. In a varied 26 years he has toured the world playing music with Johnny Flynn and The Sussex Wit, written comedy for the BBC and Channel Four, and shown thousands to the animatronic T-Rex, working for London's Natural History Museum. This is his first book. |
