Burbank Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan Print ISBN: 9780230110229, 0230110223 eText ISBN: 9780230117228, 0230117228 Copyright year: 2011 Format: PDF Available from $ 24.99 USD SKU 9780230117228 Health inequality is a global issue. This book examines the problem through an in-depth look at a remote Australian Aboriginal community characterized by a degree of premature morbidity and mortality similar to that in other disadvantaged populations. Its synthesis of cognitive anthropology with frameworks drawn from epidemiology, evolutionary theory, and social, psychological and biological sciences illuminates the actions, emotions, and stresses of daily life. While this analysis implicates structures and processes of inequality in the genesis of ill health, its focus remains on the people who suffer, grieve, and live with the dilemmas of an intercultural life.
