Attachments to War: Biomedical Logics and Violence in Twenty-First-Century America
ISBN: 9780822369806 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Attachments to War Jennifer Terry traces how biomedical logics entangle Americans in a perpetual state of war. Focusing on the Afghanistan and Iraq wars between 2002 and 2014, Terry identifies the presence of a biomedicine-war nexus in which new forms of wounding provoke the continual development of complex treatment, rehabilitation, and prosthetic technologies.

Terry examines the treatment of war-generated polytrauma, postinjury...

ISBN: 9780226793672 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 551 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Drawing on original research from medical texts, psychiatric case histories, pioneering statistical surveys, first-person accounts, legal cases, sensationalist journalism, and legislative debates, Jennifer Terry has written a nuanced and textured history of how the century-old obsession with homosexuality is deeply tied to changing American anxieties about social and sexual order in the modern age.
Terry's overarching argument is compelling: that homosexuality served as a marker of the "abnormal" against which malleable, tenuous, and often contradictory concepts of the "normal" were...
