This book addresses a critical contemporary issue-the worldwide
proliferation of pharmaceutical use. The contributors explore
questions such as: How are culturally constituted selves
transformed by regular ingestion of pharmaceutical drugs? Does
"being human" increasingly come to mean not only oriented to drugs
but also created and regulated by them? From the standpoint of
cultural phenomenology, does this reshape human "being"? An
anthropological study that examines both human suffering and its
biological realities, Pharmaceutical Self focuses on the social,
cultural, and political aspects of the expanding distribution of
psychopharmacological drugs.
