The once productive association between feminism and the sociology of health and illness has broken down in recent years. In a social world marked by significant social change in men's and women's lives and their health, a gender-based analysis is urgently needed. This books achieves this by bringing feminist theory and health sociology back together again in an innovative and insightful analysis of gender and health in contemporary society.
