It traces the unfolding of illness within families, local communities, neighborhood markets and in occult worlds. Privileging the experience of people living in these neighborhoods it asks how can global health be made to take this experience into account rather than escape from it?"--12aDelivery of Health CarezIndia.12aHealth Knowledge, Attitudes, PracticezIndia.22aCulturezIndia.22aFamilyzIndia.22aPovertyzIndia.22aStress, PsychologicalzIndia. 02localaPrint books.
