Heritage in the Body

Kristina Baines

Through storytelling, ethnography, and interviews, this volume examines how Indigenous Maya and Garifuna Belizeans—both in Belize and in the United States—navigate macro-level processes such as economic development, climate change, political shifts, and global health crises in the context of changes in their own lives. Employing an embodied ecological heritage (EEH) framework, this work explores the links between health and heritage. It offers insights into how heritage practices become embodied as ways to maintain and support happy, healthy lives.

Convergence of Population Health Management, Pharmacogenomics, and Patient-Centered Care

Anastasius S. Moumtzoglou

The current healthcare framework, often characterized by standardized treatments and one-size-fits-all approaches, falls short in addressing the unique genetic compositions, lifestyles, and environmental factors that influence individual patient outcomes. This gap necessitates a radical reevaluation of healthcare practices, from reshaping infrastructure to redefining the roles of patients and doctors. The challenges are formidable, requiring critical reflection and bold initiatives to overcome obstacles and pave the way for a future where patient-centered care seamlessly integrates with population health management, leveraging data, technology, ethics, and collaboration for a global healthcare revolution. Convergence of Population Health Management, Pharmacogenomics, and Patient-Centered Care is a book that unveils a comprehensive exploration of solutions and pathways towards this transformative vision. This comprehensive guide is tailored for academic scholars, healthcare professionals, and students navigating the landscape of personalized medicine, population health management, and the digitalization of healthcare. Authored by leading experts, the book aims to serve as a compendium of terms, definitions, and in-depth explanations of key concepts. Its objectives include supporting students in understanding healthcare domains, aiding healthcare professionals in meeting patient needs, assisting patients in deriving more benefits from their healthcare, and guiding e-health systems' designers and managers in grounding practices on the science of individuality.

Public Health Communication Challenges to Minority and Indigenous Communities

Kealeboga Aiseng

Language has emerged as both a powerful bridge and a formidable barrier in the realm of public health communication. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted a significant challenge faced by minority and indigenous communities, particularly in regions of Sub-Saharan Africa. It's a challenge deeply rooted in the historical use of colonial languages—English, French, and Spanish—to disseminate critical health information. For many, this has translated into a linguistic exclusion, depriving them of access to essential resources and a voice in matters of national interest. This issue transcends mere communication; it touches upon the fundamental rights of individuals to participate in their own healthcare decisions and influences their sense of belonging and citizenship. Public Health Communication Challenges to Minority and Indigenous Communities proposes a solution with a transformative potential. This groundbreaking edited volume invites scholars from diverse fields to contribute their research, shedding light on the linguistic dimensions of public health communication during the COVID-19 era. By investigating the impact of language on various aspects of society, from medical information to education, this book seeks to synthesize the wealth of sociolinguistic research into an accessible framework. It's an invitation to explore the role of language in shaping our perceptions of citizenship, belonging, and empowerment.
