Book Description:

Much has been missed by social researchers in their attempt to understand the human experience as a series of rational, cognitive choices. Human subjectivity in lived experience, both that of the subject and that of the researcher, is the topic of this volume, an important corrective to the cool, disdainful stance of most previous social research. The twelve contributors examine various aspects of the subject - the emotions, the gendered nature of experiences, the body-mind relationsip, perceptions of time, place and setting, understanding of the self - and how these elements provide a fuller understanding of the human condition. The book will be of interest to those who study the emotions, qualitative methods, textual analysis, contemporary theory and the self.
