  3. 3. An Anthropology Of Biomedicine

    This book examines how biomedical knowledge and practice are shaped by social, cultural, political and economic forces, arguing that medicine is not a purely technical enterprise but a culturally embedded and contested field. Through comparative case studies it explores how concepts like disease, risk, the body, and identity are produced and transformed in clinical settings, research laboratories, public health programs and global markets. It highlights the role of technologies, institutions and power relations in framing diagnostic categories, treatment decisions and patient experiences, and calls for reflexive, ethnographic attention to the everyday practices that make biomedicine work.
