Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A true "first," this encyclopedia is the only comprehensive guide ever published on the archaeology and traditional culture of the Caribbean. In The Peoples of the Caribbean, archaeologist Nicholas J. Saunders assembles for the first time a comprehensive sourcebook on the archaeology, folklore, and mythology of the entire region, charting a story 7,000 years in the making. Drawing on decades of study in the Caribbean and South America, Saunders explores landmark archaeological sites, such as Caguana in Puerto Rico, with its ceremonial architecture and ballcourts, and plantation sites, such as Jamaica's Drax Hall. The author dives into the underwater archaeology of Spanish treasure galleons and untangles stories of cannibalism, zombies, and hallucinogenic snuffing rituals. He examines the impact of key Europeans, such as Christopher Columbus, and introduces readers to the native people, such as the Arawak, who welcomed them. Bringing the story up-to-date, Saunders chronicles the struggle of the indigenous people, from the Caribs of Dominica to the Taíno of the Dominican Republic, trying to reclaim and revitalize their historical cultural identity.

Download or read book Multicultural Approaches to Health and Wellness in America written by Regan A. R. Gurung and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-04-21 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Led by a UCLA-trained health psychologist, a team of experts describes non-traditional treatments that are quickly becoming more common in Western society, documenting cultural variations in health and sickness practices to underscore the diversity among human society. This unique two-volume set describes the variety of cultural approaches to health practiced by people of varying cultural heritages and places them in stark context with traditional Western approaches to health care and medicine. Examining health practices such as Ayurveda, an ancient system of medicine that focuses on the body, the sense organs, the mind, and the soul; and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the author examines why these different approaches can explain some of the cultural variations in health behaviors, differences in why people get sick, and how they cope with illness. Traditional health care providers of all kinds—including clinicians, counselors, doctors, nurses, and social workers—will all greatly benefit by learning about vastly different approaches to health, while general readers and scholars alike will gain insight into the rich diversity of world culture and find the material fascinating.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Institutrice honoraire, Christiane Portécop a une grande passion pour les végétaux dont elle observe de longue date le fonctionnement. C'est auprès de sa grand-mère qu'elle a commencé à recueillir les éléments du patrimoine familial en phytothérapie. Au contact de son époux botaniste, elle a affiné par la suite ses connaissances en biologie végétale. Christiane Portécop est membre de l'Association pour la promotion des Plantes Médicinales et Aromatiques (APLAMEDAROM) créée par d'éminents scientifiques. Elle a encadré des projets pédagogiques au cours desquels elle a décelé des besoins auxquels ce livre tente de répondre. Destiné aussi bien aux enseignants qu'aux associations et personnel d'encadrement qui souhaitent réaliser un projet relatif aux plantes médicinales et aromatiques, cet ouvrage intéressera sans nul doute un plus large public qui pourra ainsi entreprendre un voyage instructif et formateur dans l'univers du patrimoine caribéen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'ouvrage de Jean-Louis Longuefosse - Docteur en pharmacie - allie à la fois la démarche culturelle et scientifique. Il ouvre la voie vers la reconnaissance de la pharmacopée caribéenne, patrimoine qui reflète la place de l'homme au sein de la nature dont la conservation de sa biodiversité est urgente à l'aube du troisième millénaire.Plantes médicinales caribéennes est le premier ouvrage illustré qui traite de la flore en réalisant une confrontation entre les savoirs populaires et les recherches scientifiques. Présenté en deux tomes, il détaille 200 plantes médicinales sous leur aspect botanique, chimique, pharmacologique et recommande les usages bénéfiques mais également précise les limites de cette phytothérapie. Une description succincte des maladies et des traitements qui leur sont apportés, au sens de la culture créole, permettra de replacer ces remèdes populaires dans leur contexte socioculturel et ainsi d'en comprendre la signification. Dans ce premier tome sont présentées cent plantes parmi les plus usitées dans les pays de la Caraïbe.

Book excerpt: Grâce à la grande diversité des organisations biologiques, notamment des bio-systèmes forestiers, la Caraïbe fait partie des 34 Hotspots actuels de la biosphère. C'est une aire géographique extraordinaire pour l'évolution du vivant, car les différents canevas régionaux - géomorphologiques, pédologiques, climatiques - associés aux îles, à la bordure continentale et à l'isthme ont induit une pluralité de biotopes. Ce qui a conditionné autant de communautés floristiques et faunistiques, de physionomies et de paysages. Tous les écosystèmes de l'espace intertropical y sont représentés. Néanmoins, les sociétés successives depuis la découverte des Amériques, tout en utilisant les ressources offertes par les écosystèmes du Nouveau Monde, les ont architecturés et les paysages notamment végétaux du présent sont des témoins pertinents de ce processus. L'érosion biologique régulière, consubstantielle à la croissance des productions humaines, reste, encore aujourd'hui, un danger pour le développement de ces territoires : bien des aspects floristiques et faunistiques sont encore inconnus. En quelque sorte, dans cette partie du monde la recherche est " insaturée ". Le colloque de décembre 2005 sur les " Écosystèmes forestiers des Caraïbes " organisé par le Conseil Général de la Martinique et piloté scientifiquement par l'Université des Antilles et de la Guyane (sous la direction de Philippe Joseph), a mis en relief la problématique de la biodiversité des terres qui enserrent la mer des Caraïbes. Et, plus largement, celle de la planète tout entière confrontée au changement climatique et à ses conséquences à long terme sur les milieux anthropisés, singulièrement les modifications des frontières écosystémiques et les espèces envahissantes. La mise en perspective des données obtenues par les chercheurs de champs disciplinaires variés, qui relèvent des sciences exactes, humaines, juridiques et économiques, a fourni une somme importante de connaissances et de méthodes. Celles-ci permettent d'éclairer la décision publique, en particulier pour améliorer les outils de gestion et de planification des forêts caribéennes. Par cette initiative, le Conseil Général de la Martinique, à l'instar de son président, a indiqué la voie qui devrait permettre, à long terme, une conservation et une valorisation de toutes les diversités biologiques. Au regard des modifications climatiques futures, en effet, le potentiel évolutif des bio-systèmes doit être, par tous les moyens, préservé.
