Virtuous Transcendence

"Virtuous Transcendence: Holistic Self-Cultivation and Self-Healing in Elderly Korean Immigrants relates elderly Korean immigrants' personal stories of day-to-day life, illness, and self-care. It encourages a better, more complete understanding of the cross-cultural issues involved with health problems in relation to everyday life, in American and Korean contexts. Here is a book that enables laypersons, researchers, scholars, and health care providers to work more closely together through an understanding of cultural differences and harmony."--BOOK JACKET.
