| Synopsis: |
How do the core facets of non-representational theory translate into health contexts and what might a more-than-representational health geography look like? Drawing on the principles, approaches and style of non-representational theory, Gavin J. Andrews sets out a new agenda for health geography, offering a fundamental consideration of how health actually locates and plays out in the taking place, the frontier, of life. Specific health-related activity (from fitness to health harming) everyday life and wellbeing, and the character and experience of health care are careful considered with emphasis on the nature and importance of rhythm, momentum, vitality, infectiousness, imminence and encounter of and in places. It is argued that movement is key: in how people live their lives, in how governments and institutions get things done, in how bioscience and biopolitics plays out, how health messages are diffused, how health knowledge gets translated, how health workplaces and carespaces are made and experienced, how the public unites and protests on health matters, and how mistakes occur in clinical settings.In summary, how things happen in health that appear more than the sum of their parts. |
