The editors present and expand upon a definition of 'medical materiality', namely the social impact of the agency of often mundane, at times non-clinical, materials within contexts of health and illness, as caused by the properties and affordances of this material. The chapters address material culture in various clinical and biomedical contexts and in discussions that link the body and healing. The diverse ethnographic case studies provide valuable insight into the way cultures of medicine are understood and practised. 650 0 $a Medical anthropology. 650 0 $a Material culture. 650 0 $a Culture. 650 12 $a Culture 650 22 $a Anthropology, Medical 650 6 $a Culture mateÌrielle. 650 6 $a Culture. 650 6 $a Anthropologie meÌdicale. 650 7 $a material culture (discipline) $2 aat 650 7 $a culture note. $2 aat 650 7 $a Culture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00885059 650 7 $a Material culture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01011739 650 7 $a Medical anthropology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01013693 700 1 $a Parkhurst, Aaron, $e editor. 700 1 $a Carroll, Timothy $q (Timothy Andrew), $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Medical materialities. $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2019. $z 9780429853678 $w (OCoLC)1083272806 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9780429853661 830 0 $a Routledge studies in health and medical anthropology. 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20240724074430.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E1AA89BE214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
