Politics, Culture and Medicine in Malawi
This book examines how politics – democratic and dictatorial, culture – traditional and modern, and medicine – African and western interact in modern-day Malawi. It places medical history into cultural and political perspective and illustrates how culture influences medical perceptions and expectations. It further contextualises culture, politics and medicine within a climate where the HIV/Aids pandemic permeates all aspects of life in Malawi.
