Medicine, Rationality and Experience: An Anthropological Perspective
ISBN: 9780521425766 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Drawing on his own anthropological research in America and the Middle East, his analysis of illness and medicine explores the role of cultural factors in the experience of illness and the practice of medicine.
