Description

Art of Illness examines the complex historical relationship between malingering and the invention of health conditions, offering critical insight into how illness has been constructed, contested and understood across time. This Routledge Advances in the History of Bioethics volume explores the ethical, social and medical dimensions of feigned and fabricated illness, tracing how medical professionals, patients and society have navigated the blurred boundaries between genuine disease and deceptive practice. The book provides scholarly analysis of malingering as both a medical concern and a historical phenomenon, revealing how claims of illness have been shaped by medical authority, legal systems and cultural contexts. Essential reading for historians, bioethicists, medical professionals and anyone interested in understanding how health conditions have been defined, diagnosed and disputed throughout modern history.
