This interdisciplinary book explores both the connections and the
tensions between sociological, psychological, and biological
theories of exhaustion. It examines how the prevalence of
exhaustion - both as an individual experience and as a broader
socio-cultural phenomenon - is manifest in the epidemic rise of
burnout, depression, and chronic fatigue. It provides innovative
analyses of the complex interplay between the processes involved in
the production of mental health diagnoses, socio-cultural
transformations, and subjective illness experiences. Using many of
the existing ideologically charged exhaustion theories as case
studies, the authors investigate how individual discomfort and
wider social dynamics are interrelated. Covering a broad range of
topics, this book will appeal to those working in the fields of
psychology, sociology, medicine, psychiatry, literature, and
history.
