Reflexive Embodiment in Contemporary Society
by Nick Crossley · September 1, 2006

In this book, Crossley explores the concept of reflexive embodiment - how we, as embodied beings, reflect upon our own embodiment. He considers the ways in which we modify and maintain our bodies, from brushing our teeth and washing our faces through to tattooing and bodybuilding.
