Inhaltsangabe

Through a unique amalgam of story, personal reflection, and philosophical analysis, Alison Webster attempts to get 'under the skin' of wellbeing, and articulate the multi-faceted and variously textured nature of the concept as it is evolving in contemporary culture. She suggests that it embraces mental and physical health, but also questions of identity and belonging, and a sense of human connection, purpose, meaning and value. She argues that the Christian tradition still has much to offer in transforming our society into one which sickness, disability and death are put in their rightful place; and in whch mechanistic, commodified and individualistic notions of health are overcome.
