This book traces the history of formative, enduring concepts,
foundational in the development of the health disciplines. It
explores existing literature, and subsequent contested
applications. Feminist legacies are discussed with a clear message
that early sociological and anthropological theories and debates
remain valuable to scholars today. Chapters cover historical events
and cultural practices from the standpoint of 'difference';
formulate theories about the emergence of social issues and
problems and discuss health and illness in light of cultural values
and practices, social conditions, embodiment and emotions. This
collection will be of great value to scholars of biomedicine,
health and gender.
