Written by leading social scientists working in and across a
variety of analytic traditions, this ambitious, insightful volume
explores interpretation as a focal metaphor for understanding the
body’s influence, meaning, and matter in society. Interpreting
body and embodiment in social movements, health and medicine, race,
sex and gender, globalization, colonialism, education, and other
contexts, the book’s chapters call into question
taken-for-granted ideas of where the self, the social world, and
the body begin and end. Encouraging reflection and opening new
perspectives on theories of the body that cut through the classic
mind/body divide, this is an important contribution to the
literature on the body.
