Health inequality is a global issue. This book examines the problem
through an in-depth look at a remote Australian Aboriginal
community characterized by a degree of premature morbidity and
mortality similar to that in other disadvantaged populations. Its
synthesis of cognitive anthropology with frameworks drawn from
epidemiology, evolutionary theory, and social, psychological and
biological sciences illuminates the actions, emotions, and stresses
of daily life. While this analysis implicates structures and
processes of inequality in the genesis of ill health, its focus
remains on the people who suffer, grieve, and live with the
dilemmas of an intercultural life.
