Sick To Death and Not Going to Take It Anymore!: Reforming Health Care for the Last Years of Life Book

An excellent overview of the medical/social/intellectual/cultural history of intersex people and bodies from 1600-2000 in the United States. Good intersection with race, gender, and sexuality. I was surprised that trans issues didn't come up as much - I know they're different topics, but there's certainly a lot of intersection in terms of both surgical technique and people who transitioned genders as adults. This may come from a desire to keep these two identities firmly separate in the reader's mind, but I think that bringing in trans issues and clearly delineating their overlaps and differences in-text would have been valuable. With such careful attention paid to other intersections, this seemed like a gap.
