About the book

Conversion disorder--a psychiatric term that names the enigmatic transformation of psychic energy into bodily manifestations--offers a way to rethink the present. With so many people suffering from unexplained bodily symptoms; with so many seeking recourse to pharmacological treatments or bodily modification; with young men and women seemingly willing to direct violence toward anybody, including themselves--a radical disordering in culture insists on the level of the body.
