The Ethics of Inclusive Education cover

This book offers a philosophical exploration of inclusion and its ethical implications, providing a comprehensive framework for inclusive education.

In The Ethics of Inclusive Education, the author delves into the concept of inclusion, providing a thorough examination of its normative framework. This work stands out as one of the first comprehensive philosophical defenses in the realm of inclusive education, moving beyond mere assertions of its educational value. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding inclusion not just as a concept, but as a vital principle that informs educational practices and policies.

By integrating insights from history, sociology, and psychology, The Ethics of Inclusive Education develops a holistic understanding of inclusion. It systematically explores the ethical and normative dimensions of inclusive education, offering a detailed analysis of the moral implications of exclusion. This multifaceted approach allows readers to grasp the complexities involved in creating inclusive educational environments that cater to diverse needs.

Additionally, the book presents practice-oriented investigations that address the individual and societal conditions necessary for effective inclusion. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers, educators, and policymakers, guiding them in making informed decisions regarding inclusive educational aims, particularly concerning disability and special needs. Through its rigorous analysis and practical insights, The Ethics of Inclusive Education contributes significantly to the ongoing discourse on how to foster inclusive learning environments for all students.

'Excellent, both in its coverage of key issues and its progression from ordinary concerns to theoretical analyses back to practical applications. Her framework will make an important and needed contribution to several ongoing scholarly discussions and has significant potential eventually to improve the lives of many disabled students.’ - Adam Cureton, University of Tennessee, Knoxville

‘[Has] breadth and depth of coverage, drawing on philosophy and sociology, putting inclusive education in a historical context [and] written in a thorough and clearly argued way.’- Brahm Norwich, University of Exeter
