Editorial Reviews

Review

"In this five-chapter study of some manners of "the embodied self" that are emblematic of contemporary anxieties, Badley emphasizes the shifting boundaries of the post-Freudian body and its "archetypal projections..,." Badley neatly and effectively integrates her primary and wide-ranging secondary sources; her fine, clear, and admirably set out analyses go beyond genre. [T]his volume is easily recommended for general, contemporary, and specialist collections."-Choice
