Description

Explore the fundamental role of tactile experience in human existence with Touching Space, Placing Touch by Routledge. This academic work addresses why touch has been overlooked by social scientists and examines its presence across various social landscapes. Through a deep look at embodied existence, the text investigates how touch functions within work, domesticity, recreation, creativity, and care. Readers will examine the conceptual resources and academic languages used to approach somatic experiences through the body. The book also looks at how the tactile landscape is gendered and how touch is being revalidated in late capitalism. Topics include animal encounters, tourism, massage, beauty treatments, and professional medicine. This is an essential resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the social sciences who want to understand the complex role of physical contact in modern society.
