Prostate Health, Ageing and Society in Japan: A Gaze of Ethnicity, Gender, Sexuality, and the Male Body - Routledge Studies in the Sociology of Health and Illness
Castro-Vazquez, Genaro (Kansai Gaidai University, Japan)
This ethnographic study of prostate health in super-aged Japan analyses prostate cancer and benign hyperplasia. Castro-Vázquez examines how biomedicine links prostate health to ethnicity and lifestyle choices, where a clinical issue renders a social matter, and early detection and prevention becomes an individual responsibility.
