Making Disease, Making Citizens (eBook, ePUB)

The Politics of Hepatitis C

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Adopting a feminist science and technology studies approach, this theoretically sophisticated, empirically informed analysis of the social constitution of disease and the philosophy of health seeks to map the social and medical negotiations taking place around the disease, shedding light on the ways these negotiations are also co-producing new selves. It will appeal to those with interests in the sociology of health and medicine, health communication and harm reduction, and science and technology studies.
