It provides a framework for professionals to approach Indigenous clients in a way that both respects the client's worldview while retaining a professional epistemology.</p><p>Grounded in the concepts of cultural sensitivity, competency, and safety--yet filled with practical information--this book integrates historical, social, and clinical approaches illuminated by concrete examples from the field and relevant case studies.</p><ul><strong>New to the Second Edition: </strong><li>Delivers thoroughly updated content, statistics, and coverage of political developments since 2013</li><li>Includes a complete test bank of multiple choice, true/false, and short answer questions in each chapter</li><li>Provides sample PowerPoint presentation lectures in each chapter</li></ul><ul><strong>Key Features: </strong><li>Authored by a leading researcher and educator in First Nations and Inuit health</li><li>Serves as the only up-to-date text on Indigenous health in Canada</li><li>Enhances learning with chapter objectives, critical thinking exercises, abundant primary source material, and references</li></ul>
