关于情绪和疾病的一些最具创新性和最具挑衅性的工作发生在关于抑郁症的跨文化研究中。《文化与抑郁》介绍了人类学家、精神病学家和心理学家的工作，他们研究了在这类研究过程中出现的争议、共识以及概念和方法问题。《文化与抑郁》是一本讨论深度和广度都很大的书，丰富了情绪和精神疾病的跨文化研究，并将其引向新的方向。它从一项历史研究开始，随后是一系列人类学描述，考察了在其他文化中评估抑郁症时出现的问题。这是一部令人印象深刻的学术著作，它表明，人类学对情感和疾病的研究方法提出了精神病学和心理学的中心问题，而对抑郁症的跨文化研究也给人类学带来了同样具有挑衅性的问题。
Some of the most innovative and provocative work on the emotions and illness is occurring in cross-cultural research on depression. Culture and Depression presents the work of anthropologists, psychiatrists, and psychologists who examine the controversies, agreements, and conceptual and methodological problems that arise in the course of such research. A book of enormous depth and breadth of discussion, Culture and Depression enriches the cross-cultural study of emotions and mental illness and leads it in new directions. It commences with a historical study followed by a series of anthropological accounts that examine the problems that arise when depression is assessed in other cultures. This is a work of impressive scholarship which demonstrates that anthropological approaches to affect and illness raise central questions for psychiatry and psychology, and that cross-cultural studies of depression raise equally provocative questions for anthropology.
