Routledge Advances in the Medical Humanities

Following criticisms of the traditionally polarized view of understanding suffering through either medicine or social justice, Lowe argues that medical humanities can help to go beyond the traditional biographical and epistemic breaks to see into the nature and properties of suffering and what is at stake.

Understanding Dementia as a Form of Neurodiversity

Music and the Experience of Memory Loss

This book examines a selection of texts to illuminate how midwifery, obstetrics and women's bodies were viewed during the long eighteenth century, and how these material-discursive entanglements between science, medicine, literature and culture have shaped society's views of pregnancy, childbirth and reproduction.

Bodies of Knowledge, 1726-1818

Reproduction and the Maternal Body in Literature and Culture

This persuasive volume develops a novel approach to medical education and the medical humanities, making a case for the integration of the two to explore the ways in which 'warm' humanism and 'cold' technologies can come together to design humane posthumanist futures in medicine.

Thinking Without the Box

Metacognition, Metahumanities, and Medical Education

This thought-provoking book exposes the values, judgements, and hierarchies that underlie ageism in care settings. Destabilizing the assumption that biases like ageism are always bad, Buetow suggests that ageism is normatively neutral and that truly person-centred care requires situated acknowledgement of and responsiveness.

Rehabilitating Bias for Age-Friendly Practice

Ageism and Person-Centred Care

This innovative book provides a new conceptual analysis of loneliness - a condition associated with severe health consequences, including increased morbidity and early death.

From Loneliness to Solitude in Person-centred Health Care

As nurses, we hear about mindfulness all the time, but what does that actually mean in practice? In this book readers are invited into conversation to explore how mindfulness influences palliative care nurses' approaches to caring for themselves and others through experiences of living-dying.

Embodying a Relational Ethic through Strong Emotion, Uncertainty and Death

Palliative Care Nursing as Mindfulness

This book explores previously unexamined overlaps between the poetic imagination and the medical mind. It shows how appreciation of poetry can help us to engage with medicine in more intense ways based on 'defamiliarising' old habits and bringing poetic forms of 'close reading' to the clinic.¿

Towards a Lyrical Medicine

Poetry in the Clinic

Providing a critical humanities approach to ageing, this book addresses new directions in age studies.

Forging Interdisciplinary Dialogues

Critical Humanities and Ageing

This thought-provoking book explores the connections between health, ethics, and soul. It analyzes how and why the soul has been lost from scientific discourses, healthcare practices, and ethical discussions, presenting suggestions for change. 

Arguing that the dominant scientific worldview has eradicated talk about the soul and presents an objective and technical approach to human life and its vulnerabilities, Ten Have and Pegoraro look to rediscover identity, humanity, and meaning in healthcare and bioethics. Taking a mulitidisciplinary approach, they investigate philosophical, scientific, historical, cultural, social, religious, economic, and environmental perspectives as they journey toward a new, global bioethics, emphasizing the role of the moral imagination. 

Bioethics, Healthcare and the Soul is an important read for students, researchers, and practitioners interested in bioethics and person-centred healthcare.

Bioethics, Healthcare and the Soul

Elaborating with the concepts of culture and religious literacy, this volume examines theoretical, methodological and empirical aspects of the practice and study of religion and non-religion, culture, spirituality and worldviews within healthcare.

In modern multi-cultural and multi-religious societies, a host of new issues have arisen concerning culture, religion and spirituality within healthcare, especially when people face serious and life-limiting illness. Healthcare professionals are faced with challenges addressing and handling patients' cultural expressions of religiosity, spirituality and existential concerns. The variety needs to be met without essentializing the concepts of culture and religion, and with an ability to include the non-religious as well as new types of spiritualities. This collection reflects on the tension between cultural, religious and spiritual dimensions of care in a secularized healthcare institution and describes implications of this tension for healthcare professionals and patients. The book engages with an ongoing scholarly discussion about religious literacy in healthcare, and contributes perspectives, experiences and empirical examples from the Nordic countries, especially Sweden. It gives suggestions for practical application of research to healthcare practice, highlighting challenges and ideas for how to integrate religious, non-religious, and spiritual dimensions in care.

This is an important contribution to the literature on religious literacy and provides a vital reference for students, scholars and healthcare professionals with an interest in the complex relationship between culture, spirituality, and religion in healthcare.

Nordic Perspectives

Culture, Spirituality and Religious Literacy in Healthcare

This book examines the phenomenon of physician-authors. Focusing on the books that contemporary doctors write--the stories that they tell--with contributors critically engaging their work. 

A selection of original chapters from leading scholars in medical and health humanities analyze the literary output of doctors, including Oliver Sacks, Danielle Ofri, Atul Gawande, Louise Aronson, Siddhartha Mukherjee, and Abraham Verghese. Discussing issues of moral meaning in the works of contemporary doctor-writers, from memoir to poetry, this collection reflects some of the diversity of medicine today. 

A key reference for all students and scholars of medical and health humanities, the book will be especially useful for those interested in the relationship between literature and practising medicine.

Critical Food Studies

Children and young people's food practices and lifestyles are perhaps more visible and contested than ever before. Taking a Science, Technology and Society (STS) perspective, this book offers a groundbreaking and comparative research-based study on how recent 'healthy meals' policies are affecting children's practices both in the UK and in Italy. By looking at the trajectories of connections and disconnections that food makes with children's bodies, other animals and plants, and by examining how these connections are enacted in children's food practices, the book offers insights in the complexities of children's learning about food and in the bio-politics around school meals in the UK and in Italy. It is essential reading for scholars, policy makers and practitioners working in food studies, education, children and youth studies, environmental studies and dietry studies.

Social Justice

This book sheds new light on the complex relationship between criminal liability, sexuality and public health in the era of Aids. It analyses, in particular, the role of public health arguments, and the language of 'sexual rights', in legal struggles aimed at decriminalising certain forms of 'risky' sexual conduct. Addressing gay sex, paid sex, and sex carried out by people living with HIV and Aids, the book demonstrates how public health experts are increasingly arguing that the criminal laws used to regulate these areas of behaviour should be abandoned in order to reduce the stigma and discrimination experienced by the 'risky' sexual populations that they target.

"As a sleuth and storyteller, Emily Mendenhall looks behind the curtain at the little-known backstory of how the medical community has, for far too long, delegitimized 'invisible' diseases that have wreaked havoc on thousands of lives over decades, bringing us into the present with the public health catastrophe of long Covid. Invisible Illness is a call to arms to rethink how we approach infection-associated chronic illness."--Wes Ely, author of Every Deep-Drawn Breath and NIH-funded long Covid physician-scientist "Mendenhall brings a poetic sensibility to lifting up chronic illness. She stands at the nexus of science and democracy, showcasing how the disabled rally together to live lives of dignity."--Ryan Prior, author of The Long Haul: How Long Covid Survivors Are Revolutionizing Healthcare "This book challenges us to address discrimination in clinical care for people with complex chronic conditions like long Covid, questioning why some are believed while others aren't--a persistent disparity in US healthcare."--Oni Blackstock, physician and founder of Health Justice "Meticulously researched and exquisitely argued, Invisible Illness illuminates how biomedicine's struggle with ambiguity leaves suffering patients paying the price. Deeply compassionate and astutely incisive, Mendenhall's book is an outstanding contribution."--Rebecca J. Lester, Professor of Anthropology at Washington University in St. Louis "Mendenhall cuts a crystal-clear path through the thicket of diagnostic loose ends and symptom shifters surrounding complex chronic conditions to offer a gender-sensitive intersectional analysis of illnesses that are never invisible to the activists and allies who confront them."--Rayna Rapp, coauthor of Disability Worlds
