Review

'In this path-breaking book, Simon Carter develops a subtle and complex analysis of historical roles that sunlight has played in the mediation of such notions as health, pleasure, the body, race and class. Rise and Shine is a unique contribution to the contemporary rethinking of the 'human'. 'Mike Michael, Goldsmith College, London'As Simon Carter shows in his fascinating social and scientific history, 'the idea of intentionally exposing one's body to the ray's of the sun' is a recent phenomenon.'PDS'An understanding of the major themes addressed in this book could contribute to the ways in which psychologists promote a healthy relationship with the sun among the populations that they study.'Anne Moyer & Sarah K. Knapp'An attractive and well-written book, offering well-organized if brief summaries of interesting aspects of this history.'Medical History, Jul 2008 (52.3)
