This collection of essays examines the interrelations between
illness, disability, health, society, and culture. The contributors
examine how "narratives" have emerged and been utilized within
these areas to help those who have experienced d injury,
disability, dementia, pain, grief, or psychological trauma to
express their stories. Encompassing clinical case studies,
ethnographic field studies and autobiographical case studies,
Health, Illness and Culture offers a broad overview and critical
analysis of the present state of "illness narratives" within the
fields of health and social welfare.
