Books about ME/CFS (to help people understand)

I have a friend who asked me what book to read to understand ME/CFS and “the situation”.

They are not a medical professional or psychiatrist, they are just an average educated person who wants to “learn about” ME/CFS.

I really have no clue what to send them.

I’d preferably like something that explains very severe states well.

And something that is neither 100% political analysis or 100% medical.

 

I have not read it, but maybe the book about Davis and Whitney if others believe it’s appropriate.

I also liked this article from 2016, when Whitney was in his worst state:

It’s mostly about Davis, but there are some good descriptions as well, e.g.:

 

I skimmed much of the book’s thread and it looks far better than I was expecting. Thank you for the suggestion @Utsikt I will send it to my friend.

 

I guess there's also some videos if your friend is interested in those. I think the recent video my @Grigor was well received.
