Book excerpt: "In activist circles and elsewhere, it has become commonplace to speak of self-care, taking for granted that the meaning of this expression is self-evident. But "self" and "care" are not static or monolithic; nor is "health." How has this discourse been colonized by capitalist values? How could we expand our notion of care to encompass a transformative practice? Following up our feature "For All We Care" analyzing the contradictory currents within the category of care, we present "Self as Other: Reconsidering Self-Care." This zine combines that text with three more essays in which individuals recount their personal struggles with the concept and practice of care." -- Publisher website
