| Sommario/riassunto: | Examining migraines in children and the socially disabling effects that chronic pain can have, this book uses medical, political and cultural discourse to convey a sense of invisible disability in child migraine sufferers and its subsequent oppression within hegemonic educational and medical policy. Interviews and testimonials from a range of historical, literary, and medical sources are analysed in a child-centred context, along with representations of child pain within literature, art and popular culture. The book will appeal to scholars in childhood studies, children's rights, literary and visual culture, disability studies and medical humanities. |
