  • Addresses fleeting moments of care, as well as choreographed routines that order bodies and materials
  • Focuses on practice and relations between materials and care as ongoing, emergent and processual
  • International contributions from leading scholars draw attention to methodological approaches for capturing the material and sensory aspects of health and social care encounters
