- This book takes the beginning and end of life (birth and death) as lenses through which to explore a range of key sociological themes, including embodiment, personal relations and ritual, as well as birth and death themselves. Its different chapters approach its key themes from different perspectives, notably those of experience, ethics and politics, seeking in later chapters to synthesise these perspectives in a more overarching approach. The ideas discussed in the book were inspired by collaborative work between the authors extending over a decade.
