Body and flesh

Description

"The concept of the body is one of the most recent and hotly contested areas of inquiry among philosophers today. This volume captures the different theoretical approaches at the core of current discussion and offers studies that deal with various aspects of the constitution of the body. It is designed primarily to be used on upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses, such as Philosophy of the Body, Philosophical Psychology, Gender Studies, and Contemporary Continental Philosophy, and will also be useful as a primary source for philosophers seeking a deeper understanding of the topic."--BOOK JACKET.
