Meanings of ME: Interpersonal and Social Dimensions of Chronic Fatigue cover

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS or ME) is a problematic diagnosis which can be interpreted in conflicting ways by doctors, patients and others. Meanings of ME signals a paradigm shift in thinking about the illness by providing fresh perspectives from doctors, clinicians and those who have personal knowledge of CFS/ME.

“If you are a clinician or a member of the public who does not believe in the difficulties experienced by those with CFS/ME, as well as their families and carers, then I would recommend this book to you … . I would commend this book to you to help you understand the experiences of your patients and how your attitudes, demeanor, and behavior can so catastrophically influence a patient who presents with what is a significant and debilitating problem.” (Julia Newton, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 61 (24), June, 2016)
