Über dieses Buch

<P>Christians have traditionally claimed that humans are created in the image of God (<I>imago Dei</I>), but they have consistently defined that image in ways that exclude people from full humanity. The most well-known definition locates the image in the rational soul, which is constructed in such a way that women, children, and many persons with disabilities are found deficient.<I>Body Parts</I> claims the importance of embodiment, difference, and limitation-not only as descriptions of the human condition but also as part of the <I>imago Dei</I> itself.</P>
