N2  - The August 7, 1998 bombing of the American embassy in Nairobi affected a large number of people, both Kenyan and American. The bombing led to a large-scale response from the Kenyan mental health community and to collaboration between American and Kenyan responders. Kenyans affected by the bombing frequently expressed their psychological distress in terms of somatic complaints. Case histories and written narratives illustrate the way an African worldview shaped survivors' interpretation of the bombing and its consequences.     <p>Language: en</p>
