The Book Begins With A Treatise On The Study Of Health In The Social Sciences And A Call For A Broader Understanding Of The Cultural Parameters Of Any Definition Of Health.Following A Chapter That Outlines The History Of The Whapmagoostui (Great Whale River) Region And The People, Adelson Presents The Underlying Symbolic Foundations Of A Cree Concept Of Health, Or Miyupimaatisiiun. The Core Of This Book Is An Ethnographic Study Of The Whapmagoostui Cree And Their Particular Concept Of Health (Miyupimaatisiiun Or Being Alive Well). That Concept Is Mediated By History, Cultural Practices, And The Contemporary World Of The Cree, Including Their Fundamental Concerns About Their Land And Culture.
