Description

"Health, Healing and Illness in African History is the first comprehensive survey of the complex social, cultural and political history of Africa, seen through the prism of health, illness and healing. Organised into two parts, Rebekah Lee examines how disease and health were perceived and managed in Africa, from the pre-colonial era to the present day; whilst the second part focuses on a range of case studies. This dual focus makes the text key reading for students and scholars interested in medicine in African history"--
