Description

The Oxford Handbook of the Sociology of Body and Embodiment by Oxford University Press offers a deep look into how human bodies interact with social structures. While many debates view the body as purely biological or part of the realm of nature, this volume argues that bodies both shape and are shaped by human societies. This perspective makes the study of the body a necessary field for sociological research. This academic resource works to clarify the scope of this specific field and presents new research innovations. The text is organized into three main sections to help readers navigate the complex relationship between biology and social life. One section focuses on Bodies and Methodology, while others address the social implications of physical existence. This book is an essential addition for students and researchers interested in the social construction of the human form.
