Rogaski focuses on multiple manifestations across time of a single Chinese concept, weisheng-which has been rendered into English as "hygiene," "sanitary," "health," or "public health"-as it emerged in the complex treaty-port environment of Tianjin. Before the late nineteenth century, weisheng was associated with diverse regimens of diet, meditation, and self-medication. Hygienic Modernity reveals how meanings of weisheng, with the arrival of violent imperialism, shifted from Chinese cosmology to encompass such ideas as national sovereignty, laboratory knowledge, the cleanliness of bodies, and the fitness of races: categories in which the Chinese were often deemed lacking by foreign observers and Chinese elites alike. 410 0$aAsia--local studies/global themes. 606 $aHealth behavior$zChina 606 $aPublic health$zChina 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHealth behavior 615 0$aPublic health 676 $a362.1/0951/09034 700 $aRogaski$b Ruth$01016633 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450355403321 996 $aHygienic modernity$92379524 997 $aUNINA
