Histories of the Normal and the Abnormal: Social and Cultural Histories of Norms and Normativity - Routledge Studies in the Social History of Medicine
Ernst, Waltraud (University of Southampton, UK)
With contributions from a range of scholars across differing disciplines, this fascinating volume tackles the history of the terms "normal" and "abnormal". Originally meaning "as occurring in nature", normality has taken on significant cultural gravitas and this book recognises and explores that fact.
