Page vii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Although the writing of this book was an individual project, I was extremely lucky to be in a fertile environment. My thinking was shaped by the work of feminist and critical scholars who came before me, and I was also enriched by the Monday night lectures at the Center for the Humanities and by my semester spent as a faculty fellow there. Not only does the Center provide an opportunity to hear academics whose work is at the cutting edge of intellectual thought, but, in the best scholarly tradition, it facilitates discussion and, thus, learning. In addition, I was supported by a generous sabbatical system, which provided the time needed to think, read, and grow, and by the generosity of colleagues. Mary Ann Clawson and Joe Rouse were never too busy to read my work, give me comments, and introduce me to the work of others who they thought would be helpful. And Ann duCille provided the title I had been searching for. I owe her a special debt. I am also indebted to the undergraduate students whose comments have, over time, contributed immensely to this project. Some of these students took the course "Discourse, Text, and Gender" and worked with fresh eyes on the doctor-patient and nurse practitioner-patient transcripts. Some came to talk about their own projects. In either case, they provided stimulating insights and interesting topics for further exploration. Most notable among these students were Lisa Nash, Karen Turk, and Jen Langdon. There were othersboth academic and notwhose support was essential. To protect their confidentiality, I cannot thank by name the doctors, nurse practitioners, and patients who allowed me to observe and record their interactions. I can, however, thank some of the many friends whose enthusiasm for this project was a constant. Most notable among them are Kathy Davis, Joann Falbo, Nina Gregg, Elizabeth Isele, Peggy Myers, and Ann Louise Shapiro.

Page viii I also owe a special debt to my sons, who believed in me before I believed in myself; to my special friend and colleague Alexandra Todd, who made the early years both fun and growthful and whose continued friendship and support have been invaluable; to Irene Spinnler and Connie Colangelo, who made sure all the commas were in place and helped to get the book ready for publication; and to my long-time editor, Marlie Wasserman, who encouraged and supported me during my early days as a scholar and has since become a valued friend.
