Medical Humanities, Sociology and the Suffering Self: Surviving Health - Paperback

by Wendy Lowe (Author)

Following criticisms of the traditionally polarized view of understanding suffering through either medicine or social justice, Lowe argues that medical humanities can help to go beyond the traditional biographical and epistemic breaks to see into the nature and properties of suffering and what is at stake.
