Description

In this text Judith Lorber and Lisa Jean Moore consider the interface between the social institutions of gender and Western medicine. They offer a distinct feminist viewpoint to analyze issues of power and politics concerning physical illness. This second edition adds chapters on disability and genital surgeries. It also updates and expands the discussions of social epidemiology, AIDS, the health profession, PMS, menopause, and feminist health care.
