I bought this book to use in college in 1982 and fell in love with it. I still use it as a reference. The book is divided into short essays explaining various cultural beliefs and behaviors that impact healthcare access and understanding/acceptance of treatment. You have to have an open mind to get the most from this book--oh, and there's an essay for that, too! Reading it is an opportunity to question your own beliefs and behaviors.
