| Abstract | Employing the case study of the emergence, representation and regulation of Viagra in the Swedish market, this book offers analyses of commercial material, medical discourses and legal documents to show how a Swedish, Viagra-consuming subject has been constructed in relation to the drug and how Viagra is imagined in relation to the Swedish man. |
