"Old" Ideas Still Valuable: A Review of Cross-Cultural Case Studies.

Russell, Robert D.

Journal of School Health, v53 n2 p112-115 Feb 1983

Case studies of reactions of various cultures to western health practices, from Benjamin Paul's book "Health, Culture and Community" (1955), are reviewed. It is noted that this book, which makes the point that cultures and perceptions of different countries and peoples will always vary, is still not too "dated" for instructional use. (CJ)
