“The monograph as a whole makes apparent the difficulties in analyzing social suffering as a conceptual object because there are many intersecting forms of suffering to consider. This text is a useful handbook for understanding these complex linkages in terms of what they are like empirically, rather than of how they should be. In subsequent system analyses that prioritize holism, this work is indispensable. … His blend of interdisciplinary concern and immanent critique is an impressive feat in critical suffering studies.” (Mikaela Brough, Journal of the Anthropological Society of Oxford Online, Vol. 13 (1), 2021)
