{"product_id":"dissident-gut-jean-walton-9781399532921","title":"Dissident Gut: Technologies of Regularity, Politics of Revolt","description":"Explores the biopolitics of modern metabolism, of how humans manage the world through their peristaltic systems, as they ingest food and produce waste. Set against a backdrop of Marx's theory of how we \"mediate, regulate, and control\" our metabolic relation to nature, of the rise of a bourgeois faecal habitus, of the relegation of domestic waste management to female \"meta-industrial\" workers, of depleted agricultural fields and polluted urban centres, \u003ci\u003eDissident Gut\u003c\/i\u003e performs three in-depth case studies of early twentieth-century English and European women whose wayward intestinal systems intervene in larger social, affective, and political networks, and who assert a peristaltic grammar of desire and resistance. Intervenes in theoretical discussions around the gut-brain axis, biopolitics and biopower, materialist feminism, psychoanalysis and hysteria, bodily habitus, and waste management.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean Walton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1399532928\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399532921\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"Jean Walton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45898360815871,"sku":"9781399532921","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_46333d5d-8835-4958-9c71-fa077ce69bff.jpg?v=1721376136","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dissident-gut-jean-walton-9781399532921","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
