Reviews
"Metamorphosis is an important contribution to sociology of the body, critical disability, and sociology of emotion scholarship, as well as being of interest and use to anyone interested in understanding more about the nuts and bolts of face-to-face communication; Wachs is a gifted writer."- Travers, author of The Trans Generation: How Trans Kids (and Their Parents) are Creating a Gender Revolution
"Metamorphosis is a groundbreaking, nuanced study of the experience of facial paralysis (FP) and synkinesis. This is the first academic book on synkinesis or facial paralysis, and Wachs is the perfect person to write it."- Kathleen Bogart, director of the Disability and Social Interaction Lab at Oregon State University
