Mni Wakan and the Sioux: Respite, Release, and Recreation - Hornby, Rodger; Dana, Richard H.

Clean, tight, unmarked; p.xv and p.337 had upper corner turned; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; This is a collection of 26 papers and four editorial introductions concerned with alcohol and Indians in North America. The four sections of the book include an overview of Indian alcohol use, perspectives on the causes and effects of Indian alcoholism, studies of alcohol use by the Sioux, and reports on various treatment methods and results. This book should stimulate many challenging research ideas and methods, more field work, and new community endeavours for coping with problems associated with alcohol, particularly in relation to native people. It should be useful to teachers, health care personnel, counsellors, and virtually all persons concerned with the consumption and abuse of alcohol.
