{"product_id":"the-new-public-health-discourses-knowledges-strategies-9780761954040","title":"The New Public Health: Discourses, Knowledges, Strategies","description":"Petersen and Lupton focus critically on the new public health, assessing its implications for the concepts of self, embodiment and citizenship. They argue that the new public health is used as a source of moral regulation and for distinguishing between self and other. They also explore the implications of modernist belief in the power of science and the ability of experts to solve problems through rational administrative means that underpin the strategies and rhetoric of the new public health. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Petersen, Deborah Lupton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sage Publications Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/10\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.42h x 5.46w x 0.52d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780761954040\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePetersen, Alan:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Alan Petersen is a Senior Lecturer in Sociology at Murdoch University in Western Australia.
