The University of Massachusetts-Amherst is offering a course on "Feminist Health Politics" this semester that explores whether health and disease are "subjective states" determined by societal biases.
The course will examine how standards of health "vary according to gender, race, sexuality, class, and nationality" and how this affects "the way we value certain bodies and ways of living."
