Review # 1 was written on 2015-02-16 00:00:00 Christopher Shadwick It's a bit old now, but Deborah Lupton's name appears frequently when I am looking at social, cultural, technological insights into health, and this gave some really helpful insights into the different sociological approaches, so I can more clearly identify where the writing that I'm doing sits, and also helps me identify overlaps with previous work as I look to write in a slightly different sphere.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-04-01 00:00:00 Nick Athas Not exactly the kind of book of medicine and culture I was looking for. While a tad insightful, the book talks about things in the sterile, pretentious way that sociologists do. As though they are somehow biased and scientific by using academic words. Honestly, this book screams "Tumblr" to me. It's one of those books that, if somehow exposed to social media culture, would be used as the pseudo-academecian's bible. That's not to discredit anything written, but it's just to tell you the type of book it is. I was looking for a book that was more comparative in nature. I think I could have stomached the sterile criticisms then. However, even then, I don't think I'd be able to stand the pretentious nitpicking of a system that has kept millions of people alive. I don't exactly understand what the aim was. To talk about western medical researchers, healthcare allies and patients like zoo animals? I dunno. I wish it were more flowery and less like a dissertation or something else that only a professor could love. I clearly didn't enjoy this book. I also want to add that I read the third addition which was published in 2012.
