Description: The diversity of the aesthetic ecosystem enriches our lives. In Aesthetic Injustice, Lopes argues that our interests in diversity also give us a role to play in preserving and enhancing it. This account sheds new light on cultural appropriation, ideals of bodily beauty, and state support for the aesthetic cultures of minority groups.

Review Quotes: "Lopes's book is a monumental conclusion to a decade-long tripartite project-beginning with Beyond Art (2014) and continuing with Being for Beauty (2018)-and the text pulls together many of the defining threads of Lopes's distinguished career as an aesthetician, from his early research on the mechanics of pictures and depiction to his aesthetic pluralism and enthusiastic embrace of a diverse, social aesthetic world beyond the art gallery." -- Dominic McIver Lopes, Ethics
