商品描述

This book provides an overview on critical healing, which draws on queer theory, disability studies, postcolonial theory, and literary and cultural studies in order to theorize productive engagements between the clinical and cultural aspects of biomedical knowledge and practice. The essays in this volume historicize and theorize diagnosis, particularly diagnosis that impacts trans health and sexuality, queer health and identity, and sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV/AIDS. The chapters also address racialization, disability, and colonialism through discussions of fiction, film, critical memoir, and comics in relation to biomedical discourse and knowledge.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書提供了對關鍵性治療的概述,該治療借鑒了酷兒理論、殘疾研究、後殖民理論以及文學和文化研究,以理論化臨床和文化方面的生物醫學知識和實踐之間的有益互動。本書中的文章對診斷進行了歷史化和理論化,特別是對影響跨性別健康和性取向、酷兒健康和身份以及性傳播疾病如HIV/AIDS的診斷進行了探討。這些章節還通過討論小說、電影、批評回憶錄和漫畫與生物醫學話語和知識相關的方式,探討了種族化、殘疾和殖民主義。
