Book Synopsis :

The editors of the third edition of the seminal textbook Understanding and Applying Medical Anthropology bring it completely up to date for both instructors and students. The collection of 49 readings (17 of them new to this edition) offers extensive background description and exposes students to the breadth of theoretical, methodological, and practical perspectives and issues in the field of medical anthropology. The text provides specific examples and case studies of research as it is applied to a range of health settings: from cross-cultural clinical encounters to cultural analysis of new biomedical technologies and the implementation of programs in global health settings. The new edition features:-a major revision that eliminates many older readings in favor of more fresh, relevant selections;-a new section on structural violence that looks at the impact of poverty and other forms of social marginalization on health;-an updated and expanded section on ?Conceptual Tools,?
