Reviews

“Shrink is such an important graphic novel on a very important subject—fat discrimination— which is endemic in healthcare and embedded at a policy level. This moving story highlights (with references!) the physical and psychological cost that may be incurred by attempting to adhere to societal and medical norms. I wish I could give a copy of Rachel Thomas’s book to every healthcare student in the land.” —Ian Williams, author of The Bad Doctor
