Rezensionen
The Body And Society is now better than ever. ... Turner bridges the organic and cultural with his philosophical and theological aspirations: the result is a penetrating analysis of society's blend of bodies - from erotic to famished bodies, labouring to desiring bodies Anthony Elliott Flinders University
Bryan Turner has revolutionized the way in which we think about ourselves and our bodies. This edition ... demonstrates further intellectual growth and development; innovative ideas inform an already classic understanding. The human body is the very material of our lives; this book allows us to deepen our knowledge of the meanings of the body in the twenty-first century and offers a definitive and emancipatory account of the possibilities (both negative and positive) with which we are presented and which we construct for ourselves Mary Evans London School of Economics
