Culture and medicine : critical readings in the health and medical humanities

Charting shared advances across the emerging fields of medical humanities and health humanities, this book engages with the question of how biomedical knowledge is constructed, negotiated, and circulated as a cultural practice. The volume is composed of a series of pathbreaking inter-disciplinary essays that bring sociocultural habits of mind and modes of thought to the study of medicine, health and patients. These juxtapositions create new forms of knowledge, while emphasizing the vulnerability of human bodies, anti-essentialist approaches to biology, a sensitivity to language and rhetoric, and an attention to social justice. These essays dissect the ways that cultural practices define the limits of health and the body: from the body’s place and trajectory in the world to how bodies relate to one another, from questions about ageing and sex to what counts as health and illness.

Essentials of health, culture, and diversity : understanding people, reducing disparities

With diversity, including cultural diversity, increasingly become the norm, it has become even more essential for students and those planning to work in public health to have more than a cursory understanding of the important cultural dimension of the human societies and groups with whom they’ll be partners. Essentials of Health, Culture, and Diversity: Understanding People, Reducing Disparities examines what is meant by culture and the ways which culture intersects with health issues, and explores how public health efforts can benefit by understanding and working with cultural processes.

Telehealth and occupational therapy in early intervention

It is more important than ever that occupational therapy demonstrates its distinct value in providing EI services through telehealth. This text acknowledges that telehealth is a critical part of occupational therapy within EI systems and draws on the expertise of researchers and practitioners to offer evidence-based, practical methods to engage in assessment and intervention planning with families served in EI.
