This book shows how practitioners in the emerging field of 'cultural epidemiology' describe human health, communicate with diverse audiences, and intervene to improve health and prevent disease. By unpacking many common disease risks and epidemiologic categories, it reveals unexamined assumptions and shows how sociocultural context influences measurement of disease.
