Biosocial approaches to epidemic disease in sub-Saharan Africa
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- The included seven articles, based on biosocial approaches to epidemic disease in sub-Saharan Africa, trace instances of how large-scale social forces become embodied as pathology. Through a range of methods, including ethnography, network modelling, air sampling, regressions, and surveys, each article attempts to resocialize our understanding of disease distribution and outcomes, with the goal of producing a critically applied medical anthropology.
