My sister took a position in Chinle Arizona for the National Indian Health Service. I wanted to know and understand more about the culture and what to expect when I visited. I ran across this book and even though it is clearly a text book, I was more than pleased. It was easy to read, written by someone with a wicked sense of humor and very informative.The history is facinating even though very disturbing in many respects. It is well balanced and worth the time.
