A Must Read for Andean Studies,
By Thurlow "Thurlow" (New York) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: From the Fat of Our Souls: Social Change, Political Process, and Medical Pluralism in Bolivia (Comparative Studies of Health Systems and Medical Care) (Paperback)
Libbet Crandon de Malamud died of cancer before she could fulfill her full destiny as an anthropologist, but she left us with her seminal and influential work, "The Fat of Our Souls." She spent several years in the Altiplano, where she honed her theory of social capital and medical pluralism. An unusually diligent observer, she sought above all else to document the experience of being an anthropologist honestly and completely. She left us with awork that should be viewed as a first step to understanding the complexity of Andean life in the 20th century, as well as being a primer in the science of field anthropology.
