CHAPTER 2 Critical Biocultural Approaches to Health and Illness
Thomas L. Leatherman and Alan H. Goodman
INTRODUCTION
Human health is biocultural. Indeed, the recognition that human health, illness, and well-being are complexly interwoven biocultural processes, best understood through a variety of humanistic and scientific perspectives, is a foundational tenant of medical anthropology. Thus, it might be expected that biocultural approaches – ones that consider the many imbrications, linkages, and intersections between biology and culture – would be more represented in anthropological approaches to human health. However, while both the biological and cultural underpinnings of health are well recognized, integrative biocultural approaches in medical anthropology are less common, and critical biocultural approaches are relatively new.
