- Global
Anabaptist Mennonite Encyclopedia Online
- Although the title indicates the primary emphasis on Mennonites, information
on related groups, such as the Amish and Hutterites, is available. For
a broad overview, search the terms health, medicine, or folk medicine.
Researchers may also try the names of specific diseases, conditions,
or social customs such as marriage, birth control, or child birth.
All of the signed and dated articles are adapted from the print version of
Mennonite Encyclopedia. Last visited: 8/2007.

- Hutterites:
A Selected Bibliography
- An extensive and well organized listing of books, articles, dissertations,
and other items on all things Hutterite. The site begins with a brief
history of the Hutterites and the Bruderhofers, a related group. Visitors
looking health related information will need to go to each section and
scan through the entries, since the site lacks subject arrangement.
However, the persistent user will find items on mental health, personality,
heart disease, hypoplasia, health promotion, genetic studies, and lung
disease, to name only a few of the hidden jewels on this site. Prepared
by a librarian at South Dakota State University, the site is recommended
for currency and completeness. Last visited: 07/2007
- Together
They Stay a World Apart
- This extremely short 1998 article from Smithsonian magazine
features a brief history and a few photos. The link for additional resources
at the bottom of the page will simply suggest two books and the official
Hutterite homepage.
