Reviews
"The principle objectives of this book are to underline the need for and to propose a "complementary, socially sound strategy for community-based PHC" based on "formal cooperation among indigenous traditionally-based health practitioners, the community and biomedical workers." Overall, this short, sensible and practical-minded book does an effective job in achieving these objectives. . . . The book will therefore provide useful reference material for health and social science investigators, health policy analysts, and health practitioners engaged in the day-to-day management of African PHC programming." - Canadian Journal of African Studies
