Reimagining Anorexia -- Notes -- References -- Index -- About the AuthorAbject Relations presents an alternative approach to anorexia, long considered the epitome of a Western obsession with individualism, beauty, self-control, and autonomy. Through detailed ethnographic investigations, Megan Warin looks at the heart of what it means to live with anorexia on a daily basis. Participants describe difficulties with social relatedness, not being at home in their body, and feeling disgusting and worthless. For them, anorexia becomes a seductive and empowering practice that cleanses bodies of shame and guilt, becomes a friend and support, and allows them to forge new social relations. Unraveling anorexia's complex relationships and contradictions, Warin provides a new theoretical perspective rooted in a socio-cultural context of bodies and gender. Abject Relations departs from conventional psychotherapy approaches and offers a different "logic," one that involves the shifting forces of power, disgust, and desire and provides new ways of thinking that may have implications for future treatment regimes.Studies in medical anthropology.Anorexia nervosaAnorexia nervosaPatientsPsychologyAnorexia nervosaSocial aspectsElectronic books.Anorexia nervosa.Anorexia nervosaPatientsPsychology.Anorexia nervosaSocial aspects.362.196/85262362.19685262Warin Megan1049090MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456851003321Abject relations2477793UNINA01054nam a2200277 i 450099100008695970753620020503113830.0980825s1997 de ||| | eng 3437252488b10026836-39ule_instocm00000384ExLDip.to Beni Culturaliita573Alt, Kurt W.459683Odontologische Verwandtschaftsanalyse :individuelle Charakteristika der Zahnein ihrer Bedeutung fur Anthropologie, Archaologie und Rechtsmedizin //Kurt W.
