Why are Mexican women more likely to experience nonfatal diseases than their male counterparts? To unravel this mystery, Kaja Finkler explores the relationship between patterns of social interaction, cultural expectations, and gender ideologies. In Women in Pain, she examines the nature of sickness and its interaction with issues about gender and gender relations from both a historical and contemporary perspective.
