505 0  Bonesetting over time -- Empirical forms of Maya 
       bonesetting -- Sacred forms of Maya bonesetting -- 
       Challenges and changes in the injury landscape 
520    Scholarship on Maya healing traditions has focused 
       primarily on the roles of midwives, shamans, herbalists, 
       and diviners. Bonesetters, on the other hand, have been 
       largely excluded from conversations about traditional 
       health practitioners and community health resources. Maya 
       Bonesetters is the first book-length study of bonesetting 
       in Guatemala and situates the manual healing tradition 
       within the current cultural context--one in which a 
       changing medical landscape potentially threatens 
       bonesetters' work yet presents an opportunity to 
       strengthen its relevance. Drawing on extensive field 
       research in highland Guatemala, Servando Z. Hinojosa 
       introduces readers to a seldom documented, though 
       nonetheless widespread, variety of healer. This book 
       examines the work of Kaqchikel and Tz'utujiil Maya 
       bonesetters, analyzes how they diagnose and treat injuries,
       and contrasts the empirical and sacred approaches of 
       various healers. Hinojosa shows how bonesetters are 
       carefully adapting certain biomedical technologies to meet
       local expectations for care and concludes that, despite 
       pressures and criticisms from the biomedical community, 
       bonesetting remains culturally meaningful and vital to 
       Maya people, even if its future remains uncertain
