The ways in which our bodies don’t match how the world has been built
from Inquiring Minds · host Indre Viskontas
This week we talk to Sara Hendren, an artist, writer, and professor at Olin College of Engineering about her new book What Can a Body Do?: How We Meet the Built World. Hendren's book explores the idea that perhaps many people are disabled not by the shape of their body or how they work, but instead by the shape of the built environment in which they live.Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/inquiringminds Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
