Tourette syndrome is a set of behaviors, including recurrent ticcing and involuntary shouting (sometimes cursing) as well as obsessive-compulsive actions. A Cursing Brain? traces the problematic classification of the syndrome through three distinct but overlapping stories: the claims of medical knowledge, the experiences of patients, and the force of cultural expectations and assumptions.
