This collection brings together a number of key researchers, both established and new to the field, and based across North America, Australia, the UK and Europe, and comprises both empirical and theoretical work. Drawing on a wide range of disciplinary fields, including medical sociology, medical anthropology, nursing, gender studies, sociology of risk and age studies, all authors use heath, well-being, illness and disease as a lens through which to explore the complexities and inequalities associated with late modernity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to scholars and students of age studies, medical sociology and anthropology, gender studies, healthcare and nursing. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Pickard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 113835192X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138351929\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/18\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 202\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"Susan Pickard","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136515485951,"sku":"9781138351929","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9dd6a96d-623d-4d8e-97a2-6626457ed52d.jpg?v=1770163170","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ageing-the-body-and-the-susan-pickard-9781138351929","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
