dc.description.abstractSeear’s analysis of risk, the constitution of the patient through the medical encounter, and the ambiguities of self-care all have important implications for the sociology of medicine and gender. The book offers in-depth critical examination of a modern illness from the perspective of the medical profession and the community of women who suffer it. The findings are most compelling when she situates her analysis against prior work in the study of endometriosis. The portrait of the disease and the discourses surrounding its aetiology and symptomology cover a variety of sources making for a compelling analysis.en
