About this product
Product Information
Raj Patel, the New York Times bestselling author of The Value of Nothing , teams up with physician, activist, and co-founder of the Do No Harm Coalition Rupa Marya to reveal the links between health and structural injustices--and to offer a new deep medicine that can heal our bodies and our world. The Covid pandemic and the shocking racial disparities in its impact. The surge in inflammatory illnesses such as gastrointestinal disorders and asthma. Mass uprisings around the world in response to systemic racism and violence. Rising numbers of climate refugees. Our bodies, societies, and planet are inflamed. Boldly original, Inflamed takes us on a medical tour through the human body--our digestive, endocrine, circulatory, respiratory, reproductive, immune, and nervous systems. Unlike a traditional anatomy book, this groundbreaking work illuminates the hidden relationships between our biological systems and the profound injustices of our political and economic systems. Inflammation is connected to the food we eat, the air we breathe, and the diversity of the microbes living inside us, which regulate everything from our brain's development to our immune system's functioning. It's connected to the number of traumatic events we experienced as children and to the traumas endured by our ancestors. It's connected not only to access to health care but to the very models of health that physicians practice. Raj Patel, the renowned political economist and New York Times bestselling author of The Value of Nothing , teams up with the physician Rupa Marya to offer a radical new cure: the deep medicine of decolonization. Decolonizing heals what has been divided, reestablishing our relationships with the Earth and one another. Combining the latest scientific research and scholarship on globalization with the stories of Marya's work with patients in marginalized communities, activist passion, and the wisdom of Indigenous groups, Inflamed points the way toward a deep medicine that has the potential to heal not only our bodies, but the world.

Reviews
"Science and medicine are often treated as fields that are subtracted from social movements, separate from the struggle for power that billions of human beings are embroiled in and abstracted from the material conditions around us. Luckily for us, Rupa Marya and Raj Patel are out here making these connections and encouraging us to see these as processes we all must take ownership of as we fight to have control of our surroundings. This book is on fire." -- Boots Riley, frontperson for The Coup and writer/director of "Sorry to Bother You" "A work of exhilarating scope and relevance to this infected moment in the body politic. Inflamed mixes medicine, argument, and metaphor into a post-pandemic poultice: reading it is the first step in the deep medicine it prescribes. What a rare and powerful experience to feel a book in your very body." --Naomi Klein, author of On Fire: The (Burning) Case for a Green New Deal "A critique of the wreckage of capitalism and colonialism for our time--beautifully written, storytelling at its best. This book can change your life." --Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, author of An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States " At last! A book about medicine and healthcare that is holistic in the broadest sense in that it integrates histories of colonialism, conflict and inequality with alternative forms of knowledge. And all that while remaining compellingly readable and engaging." --Amitav Ghosh, author of Jungle Nama "Physician Marya, cofounder of the Do No Harm Coalition, and University of Texas research professor Patel ( The Value of Nothing ) examine the social and environmental causes of ill health in this thought-provoking treatise . . . a persuasive argument for the need to address the systemic problems that plague people's minds and bodies." -- Publishers Weekly "A passionate exploration of world poverty, racism, injustice, and colonialism that draws a parallel to inflammation. . .thought-provoking, knowledgeable, and ripe for debate and further study." -- Kirkus Reviews, "Science and medicine are often treated as fields that are subtracted from social movements, separate from the struggle for power that billions of human beings are embroiled in and abstracted from the material conditions around us.

Together they map the connections between public health, social injustice, economic disparities, climate change, and ancestral trauma, making the case that our crappy world needs a new medical paradigm." --Molly Young, Vulture "Physician Marya, cofounder of the Do No Harm Coalition, and University of Texas research professor Patel ( The Value of Nothing ) examine the social and environmental causes of ill health in this thought-provoking treatise . . . a persuasive argument for the need to address the systemic problems that plague people's minds and bodies." -- Publishers Weekly "A passionate exploration of world poverty, racism, injustice, and colonialism that draws a parallel to inflammation. . .thought-provoking, knowledgeable, and ripe for debate and further study." -- Kirkus Reviews "This gracefully intertextual book spans many realms of knowledge--infectious disease, abolitionist thought, short-sighted colonial cosmologies, immunology, the function of debt--to offer an explanation for the surge of inflammatory illnesses across the world . . . the book reconceptualizes inflammation as the result of wide-ranging injustices, which the colonized medical system has long overlooked . . . An important read, Inflamed calls for deep medicine, and a refiguring of our body as existing in a world that continually shapes us, for better and worse." --Greta Moran, Civil Eats " The book explores one area of our lives that has been subject to colonization: that of medicine. The authors provide both a practical and metaphorical exploration of the impacts of colonization through the idea of inflammation - inflamed bodies, an inflamed society, and an inflamed planet. Their insights help us to dismantle colonization in our institutions and in our minds while building new connections and ways of being through what the authors call 'deep medicine'." --Upstream, "Science and medicine are often treated as fields that are subtracted from social movements, separate from the struggle for power that billions of human beings are embroiled in and abstracted from the material conditions around us.
