Why do we forgive a man who saves lives but breaks souls? Or does he? The Legend Of House, MD deconstructs television's most polarizing genius, moving beyond the medical puzzles to perform an autopsy on the man himself.By applying the Double Empathy Problem and trauma-informed theory, this book recontextualizes Gregory House as a neurodivergent man navigating a world of "different alphabets." It is a look at the high cost which comes with appreciating the genius but continually misunderstanding the man behind it.The Legend Of House MD explores the friction between being right and being socially acceptable, addiction in House M.D, morality, love and longing, identity and the impacts labeling and judgement has on health. It explores the myths of healing, the impacts of the social world, trauma, friendship and what it means to work as a healer when everybody lies.Whether you are a fan of the show or simply someone who enjoys uncovering the mysteries, this book offers a profound realization: we are all both the crime scene and the detective, we could all benefit from challenging the world around us, and in the end, truth (however badly dressed) is the only thing that brings us home.
