In case you're not familiar with her story, Iris Chang was a brilliant and fearless historian, author and human rights activist diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

Quote:
Irrefutably, Iris Chang won many battles in her fight for justice. But as she began to manifest symptoms of bipolar illness, she perceived them as a failure of will. Such harsh logic, symptomatic of the disease, rendered her unable to extend her own magnificent compassion to herself.
