Explore the complex history and impact of conversion therapy through this academic study from Bloomsbury Academic. For more than fifty years, various organizations have promoted the idea that sexual orientation can be changed through medical, psychological, or religious methods. This book provides a deep look into the disturbing reality of these practices. By examining memoir, film, and fiction, the text analyzes how stories of repentance and defiance are told. It investigates the different forms these treatments have taken over the decades, including counseling and religious healing approaches.
