'To improve the health of our patients, we need to be able to address all the issues which affect their health and wellbeing. This includes not only diseases but also their environment, education, employment and spiritual health. To be successful, we need to know far more about the context of peoples' lives, their religions and the cultures in which they have been brought up. This book is vital to any modern day health professional. It helps us diagnose and care for Hindu patients, but goes beyond this on a journey that makes us far better health carers. It teaches us to speak the 'language' of all our patients.' Sam Everington, OBE in the Foreword 'Highly recommended, the wealth of valuable information in this well-organized reference makes it an indispensable resource for health care professionals, especially those individuals providing care and conducting research in the transcultural health and nursing fields. Highly recommended.' CHOICE 'Fascinating and easy to read...a valuable book for introducing Hinduism, caring for Hindu patients and the importance of being inclusive of spiritual health.'
