Join us for a showcase (very delayed launch) event for Dr Amy Chandler’s book, Self-Injury, Medicine and Society: Authentic Bodies, winner of the 2017 Philip Abrams Memorial Prize.

This event will feature presentations and open discussion on the themes of the book: self-injury, bodies, emotions, medicine, and the role of sociology in contributing to how we understand and talk about self-injury.

Talks and discussion will be followed by a wine reception hosted by the Centre for Creative-Relational Inquiry, School of Health in Social Science, University of Edinburgh.

Dr Amy Chandler is Chancellor’s Fellow in Health, through Arts, Design and Humanities, in the School of Health in Social Science, University of Edinburgh.
