Description

This volume examines the ways people from a multitude of indigenous communities think about and practice health care, within historical and socio-cultural contexts. It explores diseases such as cancer, diabetes and Native-identified problems, it also covers historical and cultural experiences such as assimilation, poverty and federal and state policies and initiatives. The book also looks at applied solutions that are based in community perogatives and worldviews, whether indigenous, Christian, biomedical or all three.
