For over a century, anthropologists have served in many roles in medical education: teaching, curriculum development, administration, research, and planning. Recent changes in medical education focusing on diversity, social determinants of health, and more humanistic patient-centered care have opened the door for more anthropologists in medical schools. The chapter authors describe various ways in which anthropologists have engaged and are currently involved in training physicians, in various countries, as well as potential new directionsin this field. They address critical topics such as: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e  \u003cli\u003ethe history of anthropology in      medical education; \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003ehumanism, ethics, and the      culture of medicine;\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003einterprofessional and      collaborative clinical care; \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eincorporating patient      perspectives in practice; \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eaddressing social determinants      of health, health disparities, and cultural competence; \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eanthropological roles in      planning and implementation of medical education programs; \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003eeffective strategies for      teaching medical students; \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003ecomparative analysis of systems      of care in Japan, Uganda, France, United Kingdom, Mexico, Canada and      throughout the United States; and \u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003epotential      new directions for anthropological engagement with medicine. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003eThe volume overall emphasizes the important role of anthropology in educating physicians throughout the world to improve patient care and population health. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2022-03-06\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030622794\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-62277-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 385\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45385533161612,"sku":"9783030622794","price":62.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030622794.jpg?v=1776049095","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030622794","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
