Produktinformationen zu „Public Health, Personal Health and Pills (PDF)“

This book explores the processes and effects of the increasing governance of our lives through pharmaceuticals, looking at the moral, interactional, social and political forces that shape our use of them. It demonstrates the ways in which social relationships and identities are developed, sustained and transformed through medication use. Building on the extensive medicalization of health literature, and the more recent concept of pharmaceuticalization, it is firmly based in empirical research and sociological theory. It will be of interest to a multidisciplinary audience of scholars and students of sociology, science and technology studies, pharmacy and health studies.
