Explores the role that disability plays in modern art and in aesthetic judgments. This title focuses on disability in the American culture wars. It includes chapters that deal with the use of aesthetic appearance, and the connection between artworks and the representation of injury as a subject of art.

Since the 1970s the ascendancy of minority identities based on gender, race, and sexuality has transformed the landscape of cultural theory, embracing greater political urgency and relevance. This book provides evidence of the value and utility that a disability studies perspective can bring to these and other key questions.
