In Sociology of Death and the American Indian, Gerry R. Cox
examines dying, death, disposal, and bereavement as well describes
these practices in various American Indian tribes both historically
and currently, supplemented with oral histories from select tribes.
The book focuses on what can be learned from the practices of
traditional cultures, showing that understanding the ways of other
cultures can enhance the understanding of one's own culture by
comparing traditional and modern societies. Cox addresses that the
centuries of injustices committed against American Indians have led
to a neglect of learning about American Indian cultures and ways
and attempts to fill the gaps in knowledge of American Indian
dying, death, disposal, and bereavement practices.
