Description

Originally published in 1987, this book builds bridges between medical sociology and mainstream theory.

It does so by demonstrating in new and important ways how selected theories of major thinkers like Marx, Durkheim, Weber, Freud, Parsons, Goffman, Foucault, Habermas and Offe stand to inform, and in turn be informed by the often highly focused and empirical studies of health, disease and health care found in contemporary medical sociology.

The topics covered include doctor-patient interaction and the formation of health policy.
