			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>I have co-authored a book on the medicalisation of cyberspace with Dr Andy Miah, Paisley University.</p>
<p><b>Synopsis</b><br />
The medicalization of many aspects of social life, from childbirth to diet to housing, has become more and more apparent at the beginning of the twenty-first century. The involvement of &#8216;cyberspace&#8217; in this new medicalized world is significant as medical advice and medication is now easily available on the Internet, e-communities of sufferers and users abound. However, the links between health and identity and cybercultural identity have been little explored. Exploring the complex social interactions between health, medicalization, cyberculture, the body and identity, &#8220;The Medicalisation of Cyberspace&#8221; addresses topical issues, looking at specific aspects such as reproductive rights and technologies, gender and sexuality, cyber identity and non-humanness.</p>
