Description

Selling Immunity: Self, Culture and Economy in Healthcare and Medicine offers a groundbreaking study on how immunity shapes human life. This Routledge publication examines the ways immunity is linked to possessive individualism, self-defence, and the rise of health consumerism. By exploring immunity cultures through real-world examples, the book reveals how the concept of immunity functions as a powerful metaphor in modern society. The text analyzes the narratives found in scientific discussions, immunology textbooks, and popular science magazines to show how these ideas influence our understanding of health and the self. This work is an essential resource for those interested in the social and economic dimensions of medicine. It provides a deep look at how the language of science affects culture and the way individuals navigate the healthcare landscape. Whether you are studying anthropology, sociology, or the history of medicine, this book provides a detailed perspective on the relationship between biological processes and social structures.
