Here inPanic Diariesshe is brilliantly interdisciplinary, joining social theory with rigorous historical research, feminist criticism, and science studies to give us a genealogy of panic from its invention in nineteenth-century social science to its late-twentieth-century medicalization as panic disorder. And more, all of this is cut through with autobiographic experimental writing that makes your heart beat faster-a first-hand experience of panic. A book to read, a book to teach."-Patricia Ticineto Clough, author ofAutoaffection: Unconscious Thought in the Age of TechnologyOrr, Jackie is the author of 'Panic Diaries A Genealogy of Panic Disorder', published 2006 under ISBN 9780822336235 and ISBN 0822336235.
