The natural limits of the human body make us vulnerable and therefore dependent, throughout our lives, on others. Yet American law and policy disregard these stubborn facts, with statutes and judicial decisions that presume people to be autonomous, defined by their capacity to choose. As legal scholar O. Carter Snead points out, this individualistic ideology captures important truths about human freedom, but it also means that we have no obligations to each other unless we actively, voluntarily embrace them.

Being African American, even in this era, is difficult. Being an African American woman makes it even harder. But that does not mean you cannot adapt and thrive. Opportunities are always ample, you just need to grab the right ones. Why can’t you be the next Oprah? Why can you not achieve what Michelle Obama achieved? What stops you from being as popular as Beyoncé? You’re no different from them, are you?

Christine Montross was a nervous first-year medical student, standing outside the anatomy lab on her first day of class, preparing herself for what was to come. Entering a room with stainless-steel tables topped by corpses in body bags is shocking, no matter how long you've prepared yourself, but a strange thing happened when Montross met her cadaver.

The kidney is an extraordinary organ—in many ways the regulator, the metronome, the keeper of the human body’s delicate equilibrium. On a given day, minute by minute, it purifies the body of toxins it encounters from diet, climate, activity, and injury. It allows us to be and to move in the world. And yet most of us know so very little about these extraordinary vessels nestled in our bodies—and indeed millions of us only really learn about them when they stop working. Nearly a million Americans every year have end stage kidney disease, about 37 million have some form of chronic kidney disease.

On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court overturned the Roe v. Wade decision, asserting that the Constitution did not confer the right to abortion. This ruling, in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health case, was the culmination of a half-century of pro-life activism promoting the idea that fetuses are people and therefore entitled to the rights and protections that the Constitution guarantees. But it was also the product of a much longer history of archaic ideas about the relationship between pregnant people and the fetuses they carry.

The skin is more than just the covering of our body. It is the body's largest organ, and it has important roles in ensuring the healthy functioning of the entire body. One of the skin's major attributes is that it is semi-permeable. Because of this feature, certain substances can penetrate the skin while other substances are blocked. Therefore, the skin both protects and nourishes the body.

In this, my third book, all I can share is those experiences of struggle I’ve had in four domains. The conflicts have centered around: Loss and trauma; challenges to find the best direction, that "now what?" dilemma; battles to find and empower inner and outer voice; and conflicts arising from love, or the appearance of its absence.

The reality of being a plus-sized person isn't that every moment of your life is about being plus-sized―it’s that you’re trying to live the same kind of complicated, exciting, fun, beautiful and difficult life as everyone else. The only problem is that at every turn, society says ‘you should apologize for just living in your body’. This antagonistic messaging is pervasive across our media and culture, in ways that are both subtle and blatantly, cruelly overt. As obesity rates skyrocket, so does the shaming of those affected by it.

We have entered what is called the "biological century" and a new biopolitics has emerged to address the implications for America's collective value system, our well-being, and ultimately, our future. The Body Politic is the first book to recognize and assess this new force in our political landscape - one that fuels today's culture wars and has motivated politicians of all stripes to reexamine their platforms.

The Innovations in Mind/Body Therapies series is a collection of 10 short books that review latest thinking and research findings in Integrative Medicine, which is contrary to the bottom-up dogma that has been part of main-stream medicine for over a century.
