Each culture holds its own beliefs and attitudes towards epilepsy, and the social effects on the person with a seizure disorder can be devastating. Exploring the differing cultural perspectives held within our multicultural constituency is important if all people with epilepsy are going to receive the understanding and treatment they deserve. Below is an abridged version of Dr. Andermann's Epilepsy in Developing Countries Transcultural Psychiatric Research Review 32 (1995) 351-84, with permission. EPILEPSY IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES: INTRODUCTION The management of epilepsy in developing countries requires knowledge and understanding beyond the usual practices of western medicine. The population of developing countries, which makes up 4036 million out of an estimated world population of 5246 million, includes numerous variations in cultural, economic, political, and religious life, level of education and literacy, and rural and urban lifestyles. 1 This heterogeneity translates into an equally diverse range of beliefs about the causes and treatment of illness. Epilepsy stands out in this regard because of the very nature of its symptoms, which include recurrent convulsions accompanied by loss of consciousness, as well as automatisms, postictal confusion, hallucinations, and delusions. These behaviours have impressed people from earliest times onwards as mysterious and frightening, and required a distinctive explanation within their system of belief.
