{"product_id":"embodied-practices-feminist-perspectives-on-the-body-9780761953630","title":"Embodied Practices: Feminist Perspectives on the Body","description":"This book focuses on the significance of the body in contemporary feminist scholarship. In recent years, the body has become a  hot item′ in both contemporary social theory and research. This renewed interest has received a mixed reaction from feminists. While the body may be back, the  new′ body theory often proves to be just as disembodied as it ever was. The body revival seems to be less an attempt to re-embody masculinist science than just another expression of the same condition which evoked the feminist critique in the first place: a flight from femininity and everything that is associated with it in western culture.  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmbodied Practices offers a critical appraisal of the recent  body revival′, drawing upon insi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kathy Davis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sage Publications Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/18\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.08h x 6.12w x 0.55d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780761953630\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eDavis, Kathy:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eKathy Davis \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Professor of Women′s Studies at the Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Utrecht in The Netherlands.
