Excellent- More about Theological Perspectives on Reimagining Friendship and Disability
The book rethinks the anthropology of friendship from the perspective of theology and disability, suggesting that respect for human dignity and vulnerability is the criterion for reconsidering such an anthropology. It explores the reality of disability as a human condition and its impact on theo-anthropological and ethical concepts. The book argues that the emergence of disability as a human condition poses a constructive critique that requires the renewal of theo-anthropological and ethical knowledge on the meaning of disability, otherness, and friendship. It also suggests that the theological and anthropological entities of disability and friendship are interconnected and that the meaning of one needs to be explained in the light of the other. The renewal of certain anthropological categories in this regard is a search for a deeper understanding of humanity in light of the presence of disability.

The book "Friendship and Disability: A Theological and Anthropological Perspective" rethinks the anthropology of friendship from the perspective of theology and disability, suggesting that respect for human dignity and the person's vulnerability should be the criterion in reconsidering such an anthropology. The reality of disability is not only the reality of being in the world but also concerns the concept of the meaning of otherness and being created as an image of God. The constructive critique that the emergence of disability as a human condition posits to theo-anthropological and ethical concepts is the quest of the renewal of theo-anthropological and ethical knowledge on the meaning of disability, otherness, and friendship. The theological and anthropological entities, such as disability and friendship, are interconnected in a sense that the meaning of the one needs to be explained in the light of the other, and vice versa. The renewal of certain anthropological categories in such regard is a search for a deeper understanding of humanity, not apart from but in light of, the presence of disability. The book examines the anthropological and theological systems regarding the theme of friendship and disability.
