William P. Alford, Introduction to Part VI — Quantifying Disability, in Disability, Health, Law, and Bioethics 223 (I. Glenn Cohen, Carmel Shachar, Anita Silvers & Michael Ashley Stein eds., 2020).
Abstract: The four chapters in this part, each in its own way, raise and begin to propose answers to the enormously challenging question of society’s responsibilities toward persons with disabilities when it comes to the provision of healthcare. Although all four are one in recognizing and documenting the all too abundant and profound ways in which persons with disabilities are disadvantaged (many of which are not obvious to persons whose lives are not touched by disability), they differ markedly in their proposals to rectify these problems.
