In the final chapter in this section, Imogen Tyler explores ways of thinking through the skin of the pregnant subject in order to challenge the individualistic notions of 'the body' and 'the skin' which permeate so much philosophical and psychoanalytic theory including, she argues, Anzieu's suggestive but deeply flawed model of the skin ego.
