This text explores the border between medical and social problems, the boundary between health and social change. The book studies the body as the mediator between individual and collective experience, finding that many health problems, for example the trauma of violence or depression in the course of chronic pain, are less individual medical problems than interpersonal experiences of social suffering.

De há muito se impunha a reunião em volume do conjunto de textos que, nas décadas de 50 e 60, Ernesto Veiga de Oliveira dedicou ao estudo etnográfico das festividades cíclicas portuguesas. E isto por duas ordens de razões: primeiro, por serem fundamentais para a compreensão de um mundo até há pouco fechado no sistema da sua ruralidade e que aos poucos se vai irreversivelmente desvanecendo (mas que é indispensável conhecer para se compreender cabalmente o presente); segundo, porque possuem o interesse de mostrar algumas das linhas de força a que obedeceu a investigação etnológica em Portugal no tempo em que se iniciou entre nós a sua reformulação como matéria de uma ciência organizada. Ao publicar o presente livro, a colecção "Portugal de Perto" coloca assim ao alcance do público um trabalho fundamental da etnografia portuguesa, ao mesmo tempo que recebe entre os seus autores um dos nomes que mais contribuíram para a sua maioridade como ciência: Ernesto Veiga de Oliveira.

This book is written by anthropologists who are currently engaged in research on gender. The editors argue for the development of an ethnography-based feminism that both pays heed to what women in specific circumstances identify as their concerns and recognizes the contradictions inherent in the goals of feminist anthropology. The essays consider a range of "awkward" issues, including feminism in international contexts, the invisibility of women's working lives, and the problems of voice and ethnographic representation. Referring to a variety of ethnographic contexts, and working from diverse perspectives, the contributors examine the multiple dilemmas and conflicts of gender and power.

Great philosophers such as Kierkegaard, Nietzsche and Sartre have clearly been preoccupied by the possibility of authenticity. In this study, Jacob Golomb looks closely at the literature and writings of these philosophers in his analysis of their ethics. Golomb's writings shows his passionate commitment to the quest for the authenticity - particularly in our climate of post-modern scepticism. He argues that existentialism is all the more pertinent and relevant today when set against the general disillusionment which characterises the late twentieth century. This book is invaluable re
