Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The aim of this study is to analyze the definitions and performativity of ab/normal. This text examines the influence of the cultural context and discourse of the chosen type of medicine on the form of diagnosed disease.
