    Keywords: Aging Social aspects ; Older people ; Human body ; Aging -- Social aspects ; Electronic books
    Abstract: This book explores the main issues in new social science approaches to understanding the human body and aging. In particular, the development of postmodernism and its relationship to culture and the body is delineated.

Here, the work of Michel Foucault is useful in using conceptual tools to disrupt dominant bio-medical narratives relating to the aging body
