Description
""In this 'beautifully written... remarkable history' (Alix Spiegel), anthropologist Roy Richard Grinker chronicles the progress and setbacks in the struggle against mental illness stigma--from the eighteenth century, through America's major wars, and into today's high-tech economy. Nobody's Normal argues that stigma is a social process that began the moment we defined mental illness, but one that we ultimately have the power to change. Combining cutting-edge science, cross-cultural research, and Grinker's own family history, Nobody's Normal explores how communities throughout the world respond to neurodiversity and offers a path to end the shadow of stigma."--Back cover
