The Digital Health Self: The Impact of Everyday Self-Tracking and Social Media on Our Mental and Physical Health

Rachael Kent (Kings College London)

This is an in-depth analysis of how understandings and conceptualisations of health past, present and future has transformed in the digital age.

Putting the spotlight on neoliberalism as a pervasive tool that dictates wellness as a moral obligation, this book critically analyses how users navigate relationships between self-tracking technologies, social media and health management.
