Health-Seeking Behavior in Ethnic Populations
2007 0-7734-5842-5
Presents articles that explore help-seeking behavior within various social and cultural contexts.

This book brings these concepts together to emphasize their impact on understanding the cultural and social influences of how individuals respond to ill health.
