New open access book:
Arab Americans in the United States: Immigration, Culture and Health (Springer, Jan. 2024) [open access]
- This book "presents a cross-cultural perspective between culture and
illness. It touches upon identity struggles, the notion of not feeling 'safe,
understood, accepted', and its relation to Arab American health. The book
provides a comprehensive review of the history of Muslims in America and
discusses better healthcare services for chronic illness—diabetes. It provides
an ethnographic framework for building cultural belief models of illness,
which helps study any illness among any population. It is a must-read for
everyone interested in understanding the relationship among culture, health,
and immigration, as well as the importance of building cultural belief models
of illness and their possible impact on providing better healthcare services."
