Drawing on critical medical anthropology theories as well as health and human rights perspectives, Smith problematizes the assumed independence between the medical tourism industry, the commodification of the Indian healthcare system, and the local populations facing critical health issues, while highlighting the rapid transformation of healthcare services into merely another global commodity.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 160mmItem Width: 24mmItem Weight: 513gAuthor: Kristen SmithGenre: MedicineBook Series: Anthropology of Tourism: Heritage, Mobility, and SocietyTopic: Society & Culture, Social SciencesRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
