Synopsis
Until now our knowledge of African health and healing has been extensive but fragmented. Here in eighteen essays is the first comprehensive account of disease, health, and healing practices in the African continent. The contributors all emphasize the social conditions linked to ill health and the development of local healing traditions, from Morocco to South Africa and from the precolonial era to the present. Several chapters illustrate how the most basic facts of everyday life encourage the spread of disease and chape the possibilities of survival. Other discuss a variety of healing practices: drums of affliction in Bantu-speaking societies, Muslim humoral medicine, and biomedicine as practiced in hospitals and dispensaries. The editors provide introductory overviews explaining why and how health and disease are related to historical, economic, and political phenomena., Offers in 18 illuminating essays the first comprehensive account of health, disease, and healing practices on the African continent. The editors, both well-known scholars, also provide introductory overviews explaining why and how health and disease are related to historical, economic, and political phenomena. Combining historical and demographic perspectives, the distinguished contributors trace African "healing traditions" from the pre-colonial era to the present and from Morocco to South Africa, emphasizing the social and economic conditions linked to the spread of disease.
