It stresses the need to understand both the cultural beliefs and the daily life concerns facing immigrants, such as work, income, child-rearing, and aging, all of which impinge on health.

Book excerpt: Â Â Â An important focus of anthropological research following the rebirth of the women's movement in the late sixties has been the nature of gender inequality around the world. This collection of lecture outlines, discussion questions, annotated bibliographies, and suggestions for an interdisciplinary reading program for teachers and student bridges the gap between the abundant new research and the college classroom. Part I covers gender stratification, the economic status of women, Marxist and modernization theories, and studies of women and religion. Part II focuses on women in India, Latin America, sub-Saharan Africa, Oceania, the Islamic Middle East, and Chine.
