  • investigating the positive and negative effects that gambling has had on members of the community by using Grounded Theory
  • combating problems related to gambling by redistributing a percentage of gaming income towards gaming abuse prevention and treatment programs, traditional community activities, and child care

  • using the Family Systems approach along with community health representatives in health care interventions to provide better health care for Native Americans
Exploring the topic of genetic engineering, Health and the American Indian discusses the Human Genome Diversity Project, gene patents, and how Native Americans who supply genetic material are being exploited and see no compensation for their assistance.

The Journal of Health & Social Policv Monographic Separates
Below is a list of separates,* which in serials librarianship means a special issue simultaneously published as a special journal issue or double-issue and as a separate hardbound monograph. (This is a format which we also call a DocuSerial.)
Separates are published because specialized libraries or professionals may wish to purchase a specific thematic issue by itself in a format which can be separately cataloged and shelved, as opposed to purchasing the journal on an on-going basis. Faculty members may also more easily consider a separate for classroom adoption.
Separates are carefully classified separately with the major book jobbers so that the journal tie-in can be noted on new book order slips to avoid duplicate purchasing.
