Healing Knowledge in Atlantic Africa

- Medical Encounters, 1500-1850

Bag om Healing Knowledge in Atlantic Africa

In this ambitious analysis of medical encounters in West Africa during the Atlantic slave trade, Kananoja considers both African and European perceptions of health, disease and healing. Arguing that the period was characterised by continuous knowledge exchange, he shows that indigenous natural medicine was used by locals and non-Africans alike.
