Summary
"An ambitious and outstanding work on traditional medical practices of Mexico's indigenous peoples. The three volume set is divided into chapters describing indigenous populations. After brief ethnographic sketches, the particular practices of each group are discussed. Issues covered include Western and indigenous diseases and their cures, the resources of each cultural group, and problems that threaten each group's traditional practices"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
