Contemporary Theorists for Medical Sociology explores the work of
key social theorists and the application of their ideas to issues
around health and illness. Encouraging students and researchers to
use mainstream sociological thought to inform and deepen their
knowledge and understanding of the many arenas of health and
healthcare, this text discusses and critically reviews the work of
several influential contemporary thinkers, including - Foucault,
Bauman, Habermas, Luhmann, Bourdieu, Merleau-Ponty, Wallerstein,
Archer, Deleuze, Guattari, and Castells. Each chapter includes a
critical introduction to the central theses of a major social
theorist, ways in which their ideas might inform medical sociology
and some worked examples of how their ideas can be applied.
Containing contributions from established scholars, rising stars
and innovative practitioners, this book is a valuable read for
those studying and researching the sociology of health and illness.
