Native American communities resist reductivism of biomedicine that excludes indigenous (and non-Western) epistemologies and instead draw attention to how illness, healing, treatment, and genetic research are socially constructed and dependent on inherently racialist thinking. This volume highlights how interventions into the hegemony of biomedicine are vigorously addressed in Native American literature. The chapters cover tuberculosis and diabetes epidemics, the emergence of Native American DNA, discoveries in biotechnology and the problematics of a biomedical model of psychiatry. They analyze work by writers including Louise Erdrich, Sherman Alexie and LeAnne Howe, Kim TallBear, Linda Hogan, Heid Erdrich, Elissa Washuta, and Frances Washburn. The book will appeal to scholars of Native American and Indigenous Studies, as well as to others with an interest in literature and medicine"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge research in transnational indigenous perspectives. 606 $aAmerican literature$xIndian authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aIndians in literature 606 $aHealth in literature 606 $aMedicine in literature 606 $aIndians of North America$xHealth and hygiene$xSociological aspects 606 $aIndians of North America$xSocial conditions 615 0$aAmerican literature$xIndian authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aIndians in literature. 615 0$aHealth in literature. 615 0$aMedicine in literature. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xHealth and hygiene$xSociological aspects. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xSocial conditions. 676 $a810.9897 700 $aZiarkowska$b Joanna$01495003 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910794359103321 996 $aIndigenous bodies, cells, and genes$93727543 997 $aUNINA
