A Failure of Treatment - Oxford Studies in Social and Cultural Anthropology
Lewis
Offers a study of a serious illness in a New Guinea village. This book records the failure of local treatments and Western medicine, and of a communal ritual to bring a spirit to heal a man; it also shows how cultural beliefs and assumptions may influence events. It focuses on how those closely involved maintained their hope and beliefs.
