    • Summary:"This critical volume provides an overview of the determinants of health for Indigenous Peoples in Canada and cultivates an understanding of the presence of coloniality in healthcare. Divided into four parts, Introduction to Determinants of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples' Health in Canada explores the deep connections between land, water, ecologies, geographies, and the health of Indigenous families and communities. Each part contains a comprehensive and holistic approach to understanding the historical and contemporary factors that are significant in shaping the life and health of Indigenous Peoples in Canada and beyond. A creative contribution draws each part to a close and leads readers to reflect on past and current experiences of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples, as well as visions for the future. Compiled by experienced editors associated with the National Collaborating Centre for Indigenous Health, this collection draws together the work of key thought leaders in the field, including academics, community leaders, and healthcare practitioners. This introductory text and call to action will be invaluable for undergraduate courses in Indigenous Health, Nursing, Medicine, Allied Health, fields adjacent to healthcare, and social science disciplines such as Health Geography and Medical Anthropology."-- From back cover.
