4.0 out of 5 stars
an excellent cultural study of Japanese attitudes toward health and the body,
By
This review is from: Illness and Culture in Contemporary Japan: An Anthropological View (Paperback)
It has been quite a few years since I read this book, but it is one that comes to mind frequently. Ohnuki-Tierney does an excellent job of outlining fundamental cultural principles that shape Japanese attitudes (and behaviors) towards health and illness. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to understand medical pluralism as it occurs on-the-ground, in the daily lives of people who are living in a medical culture quite different from that of North Americans.
