Annotation: Although the introduction is told through comics and there are many graphic medicine examples throughout the book, most of the manifesto is prose. The book consists of essays on the potential uses and benefits of graphic medicine. The essay topics include: the making of comics scholarship, uses of graphic medicine with other health humanities scholarship, uses of graphic medicine in a medical school, graphic pathography in the classroom and clinic, iconography of illness, and the benefits of creating graphic medicine. This is a vital resource for introducing people to graphic medicine.
