Wow.

One of the positive things about not working as much this summer is that I am able to catch up on my reading a bit.... I finally got around to reading One of Us: Conjoined Twins and the Future of Normal by Alice Domurat Dreger who came recommended from [livejournal.com profile] bearsir and [livejournal.com profile] ishai_wallace.

I love it that I know such smart people who know of such great things....

This was an amazing and thought-provoking book. Seriously, if you are at all interested in Disability paradigm, Intersex, the medicalization of identity, any of it....... Read this book.

Yes!!! You'll love it! It's a lot like that The Marvelous Hairy Girls book you turned me on to. (http://www.amazon.com/Marvelous-Hairy-Girls-Gonzales-Sisters/dp/0300127332)
