Zusammenfassung:Newell responds to the essays presented in chapters seven and eight. The way in which disability removes dignity and claims to personhood in accounts of contemporary ethics is explored in contemplating Hauerwas' perceptive work, suggesting he led the way in understanding this phenomenon.
