Body Talk: The Material and Discursive Regulation of Sexuality, Madness, and Reproduction [Secure Microsoft Reader]

Psychology has traditionally examined human experience from a realist perspective, focusing on observable 'facts'. This is especially so in areas of psychology which focus on the body, such as sexuality, madness or reproduction. In contrast, many sociologists, anthropologists and feminists have focused exclusively on the cultural and communicative aspects of 'the body' treating it purely as an object constructed within socio-cultural discourse. This new collection of sophisticated discursive ana... more info>>

They strand themselves with too little flexibility to survive a financial crisis--and land in bankruptcy court. They neglect saving for retirement, homes, or college, and end up poorer than they might have been. For most people, it's more ... more info>>
