There was an active discussion about this book on NIFL-Health several months ago, and the postings can be found in our archives (www.nifl.gov/lincs/discussions/nifl-health/health_literacy.html) Anne Fadiman has agreed to answer up to a dozen questions about cross-cultural medical care. It seems the easiest way to make this happen is for you to send your questions to me <Helen@healthliteracy.com> by January 17th. I will then cluster/organize/summarize them, and forward them to Anne Fadiman. She, then, will respond towards the end of January.
