The University of California Medical Humanities Press publishes peer reviewed scholarship produced under the auspices of the University of California Medical Humanities Consortium, a multi-campus collaborative of faculty, students, and trainees in the humanities, medicine, and health sciences. The series invites scholars from the humanities and health care professions to share narratives and analysis on health, healing, and the contexts of our beliefs and practices that impact biomedical inquiry. General editor: Dr. Brian Dolan, University of California, San Francisco.
