In medical interactions, there are often different perspectives on what is "normal": While illness is generally an "abnormal" situation for patients, there are courses of illness and symptoms that seem "normal" to medical practitioners. This conversation analysis volume asks how and in which contexts "normalities" are communicatively constructed and which functions "practices of normalizing" play in them.
