The current (postfeminist) gender order comprises a highly complex
coexistence of old and new norms and expectations, freedom and
constraints, within a neoliberal social order underpinned by
individualism and involving a shift in gender performance by men
and women. Health, illness and disease at different points in the
life course can be used as a vehicle to illuminate structural and
cultural inequalities that persist despite several decades of
progressive reform in western countries. This collection brings
together a number of key researchers, both established and new to
the field, and based across North America, Australia, the UK and
Europe, and comprises both empirical and theoretical work. Drawing
on a wide range of disciplinary fields, including medical
sociology, medical anthropology, nursing, gender studies, sociology
of risk and age studies, all authors use heath, well-being, illness
and disease as a lens through which to explore the complexities and
inequalities associated with late modernity. This book will be of
interest to scholars and students of age studies, medical sociology
and anthropology, gender studies, healthcare and nursing.
