  • Covering the lifespan of women from puberty to old age, this comprehensive collection provides ground-breaking research and theory that challenges current conceptions of women's health.

  • The interdisciplinary angle of the book will appeal to a wide-ranging readership and includes detailed commentaries on key topics such as anorexia nervosa, depression, women and cancer, sexual abuse, disability, exercise, body image, pregnancy, sexual violence and drug use.

  • Drawing on contributions from the UK, USA, Australia, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Eire and Canada, Women's Health aims to be a source book for information, to provoke debate and to assert the importance of 'the woman question' in considerations of health.
