Description

Explore the historical development of puberty through a scientific lens in A Genealogy of Puberty Science. This work by Pinto and Macleod examines how puberty was constructed as a scientific object, starting from the early 1800s. By applying Foucault's genealogical analytic, the authors trace how different discursive frameworks have shaped our understanding of human development over two centuries. This book addresses a significant gap in critical theory and research regarding childhood and adolescence. It provides a deep inquiry into the epistemological and political roots that form our modern pubertal complex. Readers will gain a new perspective on how scientific categories like monsters and abnormals have been used to define human development. This text is an essential resource for those studying the history of science, sociology, or public health, offering a way to understand the shifting frameworks that govern how we perceive growth and biology.
