Against Health: How Health Became the New Morality by Anna Kirkland, Jonathan M. Metzl

3.0

The essays included, not surprisingly, vary widely in quality; my individual ratings might give equal representation to the full spectrum of 1-5 stars. But there's a lot of good questions raised here as to what purpose the concept of health serves, along with analysis of how assumptions and definitions of health reinforce oppressive, death-dealing structures. I am especially interested in pursuing more writing from Dorothy Roberts and Kathleen LeBesco.
