Practitioners, students, researchers and policymakers from around the globe can now quickly become au fait with a vast and diverse TCIM knowledge from just one source. This reader is timely directing the field at a critical moment in the TCIM debate, and I recommend it wholeheartedly to all students and colleagues interested in this critical aspect of twenty first century health care.' - Damien Ridge MBACP PhD, Professor of Health Studies, University of Westminster, London, UK. 'The increasing popularity of traditional, complementary and integrative medicine presents unique challenges and opportunities for a wide range of disciplines and approaches seeking to shed light on this topic. This International Reader, edited by a stellar team of investigators, provides an illuminating overview of the key debates and issues which will be of significant benefit to those seeking a foundational introduction into the landscape of TCIM scholarship as well as a capstone resource for those more established within the field of study. I have no doubt that this collection will play a crucial role in helping to further establish and guide the international health research community towards adopting and promoting a critical, multidisciplinary perspective upon this substantial area of health and health care. This text covers a substantial amount of ground in a fresh and dynamic way and will be an invaluable resource to health and health care students, scholars and practitioners alike.' - Ivy Lynn Bourgeault, Professor of Health Sciences and Research Chair in Health Human Resource Policy, University of Ottawa, Canada.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction; J.Adams,  G.J.Andrews ,  J.Barnes ,  A.Broom  \u0026amp;  P.Magin  PART I: UTILISATION: POPULATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS   Section I: Profile, Demographics and Motivations for Complementary and Alternative Medicine Use  Introduction;  J.Adams ,  G.J.Andrews ,  J.Barnes ,  A.Broom  \u0026amp;  P.Magin    The Profile of Complementary and Alternative Medicine Users and Reasons for Complementary and Alternative Medicine Use;  G.J.Andrews ,  J.Adams ,  J.Segrott  \u0026amp;  C.W.Lui  Relief, Risk and Renewal: Mixed Therapy Regimens in an Australian Suburb;  L.Connor  Utilising Existing Data Sets to Investigate Complementary and Alternative Medicine Consumption;  D.Sibbritt  \u0026amp;  J.Adams  Section II: Complementary and Alternative Medicine through the Life-cycle   Introduction;  J.Adams ,  G.J.Andrews ,  J.Barnes ,  A.Broom  \u0026amp;  P.Magin  Women's Use of Complementary and Alternative Medicine During Pregnancy;  J.Adams ,  C.W.Lui ,  D.Sibbritt ,  A.Broom ,  J.Wardle ,  C.Homer ,  A.Steel  \u0026amp;  S.Beck  Complementary and Alternative Medicine Use amongst Infants, Children and Adolescents;  D.Adams ,  K.Kemper  \u0026amp;  S.Vohra  'Getting on with Life': The Experience of Older People using Complementary Health Care;  T.Cartwright  Section III: Traditional, Complementary and Integrative Medicine and Disease Context   Introduction;  J.Adams ,  G.J.Andrews ,  J.Barnes ,  A.Broom  \u0026amp;  P.Magin  Topical and Oral Complementary and Alternative Medicine in Acne;  P.Magin ,  J.Adams ,  D.Pond  \u0026amp;  W.Smith  Patient Decision-making About Complementary and Alternative Medicine in Cancer Management;  L.Balneaves ,  L.Weeks  \u0026amp;  D.Seely    Mental Health and Complementary and Alternative Medicine;  J.Sarris  \u0026amp;  J.Lake  Complementary and Alternative Medicine Use among HIV-positive People;  R.Littlewood  \u0026amp;  P.Vanable    Traditional, Complementary and Integrative Medicine and Well-being;  R.Harvey  PART II: PRACTICE, PROVISION AND THE PROFESSIONAL INTERFACE  Section IV: Traditional Medicine in Context  Introduction;  J.Adams ,  G.J.Andrews ,  J.Barnes ,  A.Broom  \u0026amp;  P.Magin  Bio-politics and the Promotion of Traditional Herbal Medicine in Vietnam;  A.Wahlberg  The Inequalities of Medical Pluralism;  A.Broom ,  A.Doron  \u0026amp;  P.Tovey  In the Presence of Biomedicine: Ayurveda, Medical Integration and Health Seeking in Mysore, South India;  T.Nisula  Section V: Exploring the Complementary and Alternative Medicine-conventional Medicine Interface  Introduction;  J.Adams ,  G.J.Andrews ,  J.Barnes ,  A.Broom  \u0026amp; B.Shelley,  A.Sussman ,  R.Williams ,  A.Segal  \u0026amp;  B.Crabtree  (on behalf of the RIOS Net Clinicians)  The Ethics of Dietary Supplements and Natural Health Products in Pharmacy Practice;  H.Boon ,  K.Hirschkorn ,  G.Griener  \u0026amp;  M.Cali  Nostalgic and Nostophobic Referencing and the Authentication of Nurses' Use of Complementary Therapies;  P.Tovey  \u0026amp;  J.Adams  Section VI: Integrative Medicine   Introduction;  J.Adams ,  G.J.Andrews ,  J.Barnes ,  A.Broom  \u0026amp;  P.Magin  Variations in Provider Conceptions of Integrative Medicine;  A.Hsiao ,  G.Ryan ,  R.Hays ,  I.Coulter ,  R.Anderson  \u0026amp;  N.Wenger  Which Medicine?
