Câncer
O câncer é ainda percebido como uma doença fatal e sentido como uma condenação e/ou como um castigo. Diante do diagnóstico, a pessoa se sente tomada por um turbilhão de emoções e de pensamentos – medos, dúvidas, ressentimentos, desesperança, perplexidade etc. A autora procura mostrar alguns recursos disponÃveis para o enfrentamento da doença através da participação ativa e responsável da pessoa com câncer. Esses recursos vão dos tratamentos convencionais – a cirurgia, a radioterapia, a quimioterapia e a imunoterapia – à s abordagens corpo-mente – o relaxamento, a meditação e as imagens guiadas – estendendo-se, também, à Medicina Chinesa, à Medicina AntroposÃ...
Getting Intimate
This thesis focuses on the intersections of masculinity, old age and sexuality from the perspectives of old men themselves, how they understand and experience sex and sexuality in later life. The study uses qualitative in-depth interviews and body diaries, an exploratory method that asked men write about their bodies in everyday life. Twenty-two men, born between 1922 and 1942, participated in the study. The aim of the thesis is two-fold: firstly, to study sexual subjectivities of old men, how old men articulate and make meaning around sexuality in later life. Secondly, the study aims to explore theoretically what a male body may become in relation to ageing; in what ways the ageing male bod...
Biosocialities, Genetics and the Social Sciences
Biosocialities, Genetics and the Social Sciences explores the social, cultural and economic transformations that result from innovations in genomic knowledge and technology. This pioneering collection uses Paul Rabinow’s concept of biosociality to chart the shifts in social relations and ideas about nature, biology and identity brought about by developments in biomedicine. Based on new empirical research, it contains chapters on genomic research into embryonic stem cell therapy, breast cancer, autism, Parkinson’s and IVF treatment, as well as on the expectations and education surrounding genomic research. It covers four main themes: novel modes of identity and identification, such as gen...

Early Life History of Fish
Among the fishes, a remarkably wide range of biological adaptations to diverse habitats has evolved. As well as living in the conventional habitats of lakes, ponds, rivers, rock pools and the open sea, fish have solved the problems of life in deserts, in the deep sea, in the cold Antarctic, and in warm waters of high alkalinity or of low oxygen. Along with these adaptations, we find the most impressive specializations of morphology, physiology and behaviour. For example we can marvel at the high-speed swimming of the marlins, sailfish and warm-blooded tunas, air breathing in catfish and lungfish, parental care in the mouth-brooding cichlids and viviparity in many sharks and toothcarps. Moreo...
