Exhaustion

"This book demonstrates that exhaustion has always been with us, beginning in classical antiquity, and helps us critically evaluate the narratives we tell ourselves about the phenomenon. Pathologized, demonized, sexualized, and even weaponized, exhaustion unites the mind with the body and society in such a way that we attach larger questions of agency, willpower, and well-being to its symptoms. Exhausiton: A History finds in our struggle to overcome weariness a more significant effort to master ourselves."--Page [4] of cover.
