The Enculturated Gene : Sickle Cell Health Politics and Biological Difference in West Africa /

After casual observations of how patients managed this painful blood disorder, the researchers in question postulated that the Senegal...

After casual observations of how patients managed this painful blood disorder, the researchers in question postulated that the Senegalese type was less severe. The Enculturated Gene traces how this genetic discourse has blotted from view the roles that Senegalese patients and doctors have played in making sickle cell "mild" in a social setting where public health priorities and economic austerity programs have forced people to imp. | ||
