How do we choose, what do the treatments offer, and how do they cure? In Mudpacks and Prozac, Murphy Halliburton investigates the very different ways in which Ayurvedic, Western, and religious (Christian, Muslim, and Hindu) healing systems define psychiatric problems and cures. He describes people''s embodied experiences of therapies that range from soothing to frightening 606 $aTraditional medicine$zIndia$zKerala 606 $aCultural psychiatry$zIndia$zKerala 606 $aMedicine, Ayurvedic$zIndia$zKerala 606 $aHealing$xSocial aspects$zIndia$zKerala 606 $aHuman mechanics$zIndia$zKerala 607 $aKerala (India)$xSocial life and customs 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTraditional medicine 615 0$aCultural psychiatry 615 0$aMedicine, Ayurvedic 615 0$aHealing$xSocial aspects 615 0$aHuman mechanics 676 $a954.83 676 $a954/.83 700 $aHalliburton$b Murphy$f1964-,$0870031 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456671503321 996 $aMudpacks and Prozac$92199516 997 $aUNINA
