Carol R. Ember, ?Encyclopedia of Medical Anthropology: Health and Illness in the World's Cultures?
Springer | ISBN: 0306477548 | 1 edition (December 31, 2003) | 2944 pages | PDF | 5.5 M
Medical practitioners and the ordinary citizen are becoming more aware that we need to understand cultural variation in medical belief and practice. The more we know how health and disease are managed in different cultures, the more we can recognize what is "culture bound" in our own medical belief and practice.
The Encyclopedia of Medical Anthropology is unique because it is the first reference work to describe the cultural practices relevant to health in the world's cultures and to provide an overview of important topics in medical anthropology. No other single reference work comes close to marching the depth and breadth of information on the varying cultural background of health and illness around the world. More than 100 experts - anthropologists and other social scientists - have contributed their firsthand experience of medical cultures from around the world.
The encyclopedia consists of two volumes: Topics and Cultures.
