Illness and Culture in the Postmodern Age
Univ of California Press (1998)
Abstract
We become ill in ways our parents and grandparents did not, with diseases unheard of and treatments undreamed of generations ago. This text tells the story of the modern experience of illness, linking ideas of illness, health, and postmodernism.
