Body Criticism: Imaging the Unseen in Enlightenment Art and Medicine
"[Body Criticism] establishes at one stroke a new research agenda in what may be called the 'visual sciences.' It offers an exciting and provocative analysis of the body and body metaphors in an encyclopedic work of truly international and interdisciplinary nature."  --Louis Gottschalk Prize      "Stafford's book is ... full of intriguing, even intoxicating, ideas. For anyone involved with images it opens unexplored avenues of thought, forcing one to question traditional assumptions about both images and text."  --Helene Roberts, Visual Resources
