"ugh. I can't believe I had to pay to read this book." according to ModestoDoula. Required for a class. The goal of the book is missed, party because it is clearly written from a provider-centered framework that fails to teach cultural humility. Completely false information regarding alternative health practices is presented as the truth here, which only furthers the gulf of misunderstanding between providers and users of complementary/alternative medicine. So much outdated information, including listing of the government of the Khmer Rouge as a country- it hasn't existed for since 1979. In an effort to be recent and relevant, 9/11 is once mentioned as the result of poor cultural understanding in the American Healthcare sy. "From a students point of view" according to knitting ninja. Over all, I enjoyed reading the book. It generally flowed well and was easy to understand. It had enough depth to adequately cover the content in a semester based class (which also covered some nursing theory using other texts) without getting too bogged down in detail. Many parts were enlightening and, until I read the book, I really never considered that health care itself has a culture of it's own. I gave it four stars because I would not want this to be my only text for an entire class.. Five Stars Product met my expectation.
