Consequently, less sustained analytical attention has been given by social scientists to the rich tapestry of other social and political dimensions of vaccines and consequences of vaccination. This book begins from the premise that a broader approach to the technology and intervention of vaccination is required and that further social scientific analysis is needed of how societies produce and preserve high levels of vaccination coverage, as well as the social and political challenges or threats ? beyond vaccine hesitancy ? that may harm or restrict it. To achieve this, the book assembles and reframes evidence from medical sociology, science and technology studies, public health, health geography, and the medical humanities. In doing so it looks across the ?immunisation social order? by analysing dimensions that have thus far been neglected or under-scrutinised, revealing not only the functioning of and central challenges to the immunisation social order, but also bringing into sharp focus the social and political nature of vaccines themselves. Tom Douglass is a Research Fellow at the University of Birmingham. He is a sociologist by background and has research interests within health and social care. He has worked on a range of qualitative and mixed methods research projects concerned with vaccine hesitancy, patient complaints and care home closures. Alistair Anderson is a geographer with research interests in health behaviours and veterinary medicine. As a mixed-methods social researcher, he has worked on projects concerning antibiotic stewardship, vaccine hesitancy, and the experience of work in the veterinary profession. 606 $aScience$xSocial aspects 606 $aSocial medicine 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aScience and Technology Studies 606 $aMedical Sociology 606 $aHuman Geography 615 0$aScience$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSocial medicine. 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 14$aScience and Technology Studies. 615 24$aMedical Sociology. 615 24$aHuman Geography. 676 $a303.483 700 $aDouglass$b Tom$01742067 701 $aAnderson$b Alistair$01742068 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910865252503321 996 $aVaccines in Society$94168677 997 $aUNINA
