Dear Colleagues,
Rhetoric of Health and Medicine’s latest issue is out now! Issue 8.4 begins with an introduction from editors Cathryn Molloy, Kim Hensley Owens, and Fernando Sánchez that argues for the RHM community as a source of hope in traumatic times. It also includes four original research articles on topics such as image repair following failed clinical trials, the role of online support forums in health decision making, rhetorical agency of online health influencers, and the ways in which eye movement disorder patients navigate frustrating healthcare contexts. Likewise, this issue includes two new book reviews.
Thank you to all of our contributors: Kenneth Zagacki, Andrew Binder, Shanna Cameron, Dorthea Roe, Jens E. Kjeldsen, Brian Le Lay, Bill Keith, Kari Lundgren, and Sharmin Sumaiya Sarker.
