The Sensitives

In this captivating audiobook, the author delves into the enigmatic world of environmental illness and the community of "sensitives," individuals who experience debilitating reactions to everyday chemicals and signals that are typically harmless to others. With over fifty million Americans affected, the narrative follows Broudy's journey alongside Brian Welsh, a key figure in the EI community, as they seek answers and navigate the intricate subculture surrounding this often-misunderstood condition. Set against the backdrop of Snowflake, Arizona, a sanctuary for sensitives, the exploration also provides insightful reflections on medical history and the broader implications of modernity’s impact on health.
