Description

Culture and Health offers an overview of different areas of culture and health, building on foundations of medical anthropology and health behavior theory.

The book addresses the perspectives of clinically applied anthropology, trans-cultural psychiatry and the medical ecology, critical medical anthropology and symbolic paradigms as frameworks for enhanced comprehension of health and the medical encounter.

Includes cultural case studies, applied vignettes, and self-assessments.
