ISBN: 9781850009436 - body matters: essays on the sociology of the body (12 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Focusing on the sociological embodiment of various "social actors", the authors consider the subsequent links with the constraints of daily life i.e. the male body, female therapists, body builders, marital and sexual counsellors, sex workers. They present recent or new research findings on aspects of the body, variants from what is conventionally seen as "natural" and consider and question aspects of self-image versus society's expectations.
