This course examines the ways in which different societies and cultures are impacted by illness and balance healing traditions with multiple forms of medical practice. Building upon the work of scientists, anthropologists, and public health scholars, the student will use global disease patterns, population dynamics, healthcare systems, global healing practices, and resource availability to develop new ways of thinking about their own vulnerabilities and their life choices.
