PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Lena Theodoropoulou is Lecturer in Public Health at the University of Liverpool.
As despair increasingly becomes the norm, so too is it clear that the standard ways for addressing it no longer work, if they ever did. This is particularly clear when it comes to addiction. In this timely and original book, Lena Theodoropoulou reimagines practices of recovery and care with a compelling alternative grounded in ethnographic research. It is just this kind of reimagining - empirically-grounded and theoretically sophisticated - that we need today. This book is necessary reading for anyone interested in addiction and recovery. Jarrett Zigon, Porterfield Chair of Bioethics and Professor of Anthropology, University of Virginia, USA; author of HIV is God's Blessing: Rehabilitating Morality in Neoliberal Russia and A War on People: Drug User Politics and a New Ethics of Community Becoming with Care establishes a provocative new orientation to the field of critical drug studies, outlining a means of inhabiting the lifeworlds of people who use drugs so that we might better appreciate the relations of care and mutuality that sustain these worlds. By emphasising relations of care, the book proposes a powerful new ethics for responding to contemporary drug problems, and a compelling new vision of health, wellbeing and recovery.
