In this innovative contribution to the study of food, gender, and
power, Helen Vallianatos meticulously documents cultural values and
beliefs, dietary practaices, and the nutritional and health status
of mothers in Indian squatter settlements. She explores both
large-scale forces-incorporating critical medical anthropology and
feminist theory into a biocultural paradigm-and the local and
individual choices New Delhi women make in interpreting cultural
dietary norms based on their reproductive histories, socioeconomic
status, family structure, and other specific conditions. Her
findings have significant implications for nutritional and medical
anthropology and development studies, and her innovative research
design serves as a model for multi-method studies that use
participatory research principles, combine quantitative and
qualitative investigations, and interpret diverse types of data.
