Book •
Sarah Hendren's "What Can a Body Do?" is a powerful and insightful exploration of disability, design, and the human experience.
Hendren challenges conventional notions of ability and disability, arguing that our understanding of the body is shaped by societal norms and expectations.
She uses personal anecdotes and case studies to illustrate how design can either exclude or empower people with disabilities.
The book's central theme is the importance of creating inclusive environments that accommodate the diverse needs and experiences of all bodies.
Hendren's work is a call for a more equitable and just world, where design is used to promote human flourishing for everyone.
