Roussel entitled Le corps et ses sociologies. The book presents a sociological discussion of the way in which the human brain recognizes and uses the body as means of interaction, from various classic authors. Bodily social interactions such as looks, facial expressions, posture, gestures are cultural and historical constructs. The body is not only revealed as a product of society but also as constructor of cultural meanings. The authors have elaborated a discussion on the body, in seven chapters, presenting innumerous problems of study as the social uses of the body; the body marks in society; body gestures seen as a regular in social interactions; the body and phenomenology; body and modernity; body and the standards of beauty; the body and sexual identities; the body and the power relations.
