Questioning Misfortune: The Pragmatics of Uncertainty in Eastern Uganda - Cambridge Studies in Medical Anthropology
Whyte, Susan Reynolds (University of Copenhagen)
This study of adversity and its social causes in rural Uganda considers how people deal with life's uncertainties - sickness, suffering, marital problems, failure, and death. It emphasises the fact that remedies often fail and that doubt and uncertainty persist.
