From grocery store to doctor's office, alternative medicine is
everywhere. A recent survey found that more than two in five
Americans uses some form of alternative medicine. "The Politics of
Healing" brings together top scholars in the fields of American
history, history of medicine, anthropology, sociology, and politics
to counter the view that alternative medical therapies fell into
disrepute in the decades after physicians established their
institutional authority during the Progressive Era. From homeopathy
to Navajo healing, this volume explores a variety of alternative
therapies and political movements that have set the terms of debate
over North American healing methods.
