This new edition of Chris Shilling's classic text offers an account of the emergence and development of body matters in sociology and related disciplines. A timely, well reasoned response to current concerns and controversies across the globe, it provides coverage of the major theories, approaches and studies conducted in the field. Each chapter has been revised and updated, with new discussions of 'action network theory', bodywork, pragmatism, the global resurgence of religious identities, 'new genetics', biological citizenship, and figurations of the living and dead
