      abstract = {This volume reflects on how anthropologists have engaged  in medical education and aims to positively influence the  future careers of anthropologists who are currently engaged  or are considering a career in medical education. The  volume is essential for medical educators, administrators,  researchers, and practitioners, those interested in the  history of medicine, global health, sociology of health and  illness, medical and applied anthropology. For over a  century, anthropologists have served in many roles in  medical education: teaching, curriculum development,  administration, research, and planning. Recent changes in  medical education focusing on diversity, social  determinants of health, and more humanistic  patient-centered care have opened the door for more  anthropologists in medical schools. The chapter authors  describe various ways in which anthropologists have engaged  and are currently involved in training physicians, in  various countries, as well as potential new directions in  this field. They address critical topics such as: the  history of anthropology in medical education; humanism,  ethics, and the culture of medicine; interprofessional and  collaborative clinical care; incorporating patient  perspectives in practice; addressing social determinants of  health, health disparities, and cultural competence;  anthropological roles in planning and implementation of  medical education programs; effective strategies for  teaching medical students; comparative analysis of systems  of care in Japan, Uganda, France, United Kingdom, Mexico,  Canada and throughout the United States; and potential new  directions for anthropological engagement with medicine.  The volume overall emphasizes the important role of  anthropology in educating physicians throughout the world  to improve patient care and population health. .},
