The Indian Ocean has been the site of multiple interconnected
medical interactions that may be viewed in the context of the
environmental factors connecting the region. This interdisciplinary
work presents essays on various aspects of disease, medicine, and
healing in different locations in and around the Indian Ocean from
the eighteenth century to the contemporary era. The essays explore
theoretical explanations for disease, concepts of fertility,
material culture, healing in relation to diplomacy and colonialism,
public health, and the health of slaves and migrant workers. This
book will appeal to academics and graduate students working in the
fields of medical and scientific history, as well as in the growing
fields of Indian Ocean studies and global history.
