Description

This Routledge academic monograph explores the lived experience of respiratory illness in ageing populations through an ethnographic lens. The work examines how breathlessness shapes identity, social relationships and everyday life for individuals managing chronic lung conditions in their later years. Drawing on extensive fieldwork and participant narratives, the study bridges medical anthropology and gerontology to reveal the biosocial dimensions of respiratory disease - the intersection of biological processes, medical systems and personal circumstances. Part of the Routledge Studies in Health and Medical Anthropology series, this volume offers researchers, healthcare professionals and students a nuanced understanding of how people negotiate bodily vulnerability, medical interventions and social support whilst living with progressive lung disease. The ethnographic approach illuminates the often-overlooked perspectives of patients themselves, moving beyond clinical frameworks to situate illness within broader contexts of family, community and cultural meaning-making in later life.
