Publisher's Synopsis
Despite recent signs of change, people living with some form of disability continue to face discrimination, marginalization, and exclusion from full participation in public life, even within the church. In Africa particularly, those living with disabilities are often subject to stigma, abuse, and neglect, attitudes which can stem from misleading theologies. Bringing together experts from a range of disciplines, this collection of essays fills a long-standing need for scholarship on disability theology in African theological institutions.
