| NOTES: |
"Comic artists and scholars of life writing, literature, and comics explore the lived experience of illness and disability through original texts, images, and the dynamic interplay between the two. |
| NOTES: |
The essays and autobiographical comics in this collection respond to the medical humanities' call for different perceptions and representations of illness and disability than those found in conventional medical discourse. |
| NOTES: |
The collection expands and troubles our understanding of the relationships between patients and doctors, nurses, and social workers, caregivers, and family members, considering such encounters in terms of cultural context, language, gender, class, and ethnicity..."--Back cover. |
