"A valuable collection. . . . The essays in the volume are all
fresh, the result of recent work, and the opening chapter by Garro

"A good place to consult the narrative turn in medical
anthropology. Thick with the richness and diversity and stubborn
resistance to interpretations of human stories of illness. An
anthropological antidote for too narrow a framing of the complex
tangle of ways-of-being and ways-of-telling that make medicine a
space of indelibly human experiences." --Arthur Kleinman, author of
"The Illness Narratives
