Description

Explore the complex connections between health, race, and politics in the contemporary United States with Racial Prescriptions: Pharmaceuticals, Difference, and the Politics of Life. This Routledge publication examines how matters of life and health have become central political concerns. As racialized minorities face disproportionate impacts from illnesses like diabetes and heart disease, the book investigates the shifting landscape of how these disparities are addressed. While social and environmental solutions have traditionally been proposed to tackle health inequalities, this work looks at the rising influence of genetic thinking following the mapping of the human genome. It provides a deep look at how genetic perspectives now shape the way health inequalities are problematized. This text is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of medicine, sociology, and political science, offering a clear view of how pharmaceutical and genetic discourses impact marginalized populations.
