Dependent Rational Animals: Why Human Beings Need the Virtues
Alasdair MacIntyre
This work compares humans to other intelligent animals, drawing conclusions about human social life and our treatment of those whom it argues we should no longer call "disabled". It shows that humans are independent but they are also dependent animals who must learn in order to stay independent.
