First published in 1971, The Process of Becoming Ill is concerned
with how people become ill: not with how people contract diseases
but how people come to occupy the social status of ‘sick
person’. It is concerned with an analysis of illness behaviour in
terms of what it means to be an ill person or a member of the
family of an ill person by studying twenty-four families in South
Wales. The study was intended to suggest areas of interest for
those concerned with the study of illness behaviour which might, at
a later date, be looked at in the light of specific questions
suitable for more comprehensive enquiry. This book will be of
interest to students of medicine, medical sociology, and health
care.
