Suicide in American Indians
A demographic analysis of suicide rates among American and Canadian Indians. Lester examines the validity of statistical information finding a higher suicide incidence than current figures present, discussing general patterns, causes, psychological and sociological factors, suicide rates in different tribes, and suggesting methods of preventing suicide in American Indian culture--strategies that involve higher levels of assimilation.
