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. Previously published in Journal of Medical Humanities Volume 40, issue 1, March 2019 Chapter ?Queer Theory and Biomedical Practice: The Biomedicalization of Sexuality/The Cultural Politics of Biomedicine? is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
