Its wealth lies in the specific analysis of the contributions of traditional European medicine to the history of the practice of native medicine, also called \"popular\" or \"casera\" medicine and, from the 20th century, \"folkloric medicine\", since it brings together various traditions. In this sense, this book first shows us a strong link between magical-religious and empirical \"medical knowledge\", with traditions, techniques and medical practices brought by European immigrants in the 19th century (although in some cases these could also going back to colonial times) and which lasted well into the 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mariel Alejandra Lez, Astrid Dahhur\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8894737314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788894737318\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edizioni Diodati\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/16\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.51d","brand":"Mariel Alejandra Lez","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44790203941119,"sku":"9788894737318","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8d096950-366e-4d49-9019-c2f828d31858.jpg?v=1707288254","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/folk-medicine-and-heritage-mariel-alejandra-l-pez-9788894737318","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
