Profile:
Pamela Moss trained as a geographer, teaches from socialist, poststructuralist, and feminist perspectives. Her interests in commonplace activities and the mundane has led her to explore themes of body, power, and identity in numerous contexts - women, bodies, combat veterans, chronic illness, contested illness, myalgic encephalopathy (ME), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), feminist methodology, feminist theory, discursive spaces, and autobiography.
