Description - Body Cultures by John Bale

Body Cultures explores the relationship between the body, sport and landscape. This book presents the first critically edited collection of Henning Eichberg's provocative essays into 'body culture'. Eichberg, a well-known scholar in continental Europe who draws upon the ideas of Elias, Foucault, Habermas and others, is now attracting considerable interest from Anglo-American sociologists, historians and geographers. Introductory essays from the editors and Susan Brownwell provide clear explanations and interpretations as well as a biography of Eichberg.
