Create a flyer for "The Sociology of the Body"

Interesting text with chapters on: Space and Place: Habitus and Social Control. The Bounded body and Psychoanalysis.

Useful text and very well organised, a great introduction for undergraduate level.

I have adopted this text as recommended reading for my students at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. Theoretical ideas are accessible and carefully presented - a great addition to the literature in this area.

This is a very useful introductory text that will help students understand a range of theoretical approaches to the body. It is compact and clearly written. I would have liked it to flag up more directly which theorists were being addressed in each chapter - names and approaches are embedded in introductory sections, whereas more explicit chapter titles and sub-headings indicating topics would be very useful for readers, especially students.
