| Publisher Description: This collection includes research on engineering robots for emotional interaction, the vulnerability of soldiers to post-traumatic stress disorder, cognitive dimensions of political and science communication, sports coaching across cultures, intergenerational health problems in Aboriginal populations, the political economy of addiction treatment, the impact of poverty on the developing brain, psychiatric care for Nepali Bhutanese refugees, and how culture and institutions affect psychosis. These cases show how a holistic approach to neural development and structure in social contexts provides a powerful new way to apply anthropology. |
