Description

This is a quick-access clinical guide to the range of mental health issues and diagnoses that commonly affect women across the life span.

It focuses on the unique biopsychosocial factors that make women especially vulnerable to psychological disorders and emphasises key stressors specific to women that are precursors to mental illness.

Frequent headings and bulleted, concise presentation of information facilitates reading. In addition to discussing mental health issues specific to women, the guide covers unique populations such as disabled women, lesbian and transgendered women, female veterans, women with forensic health concerns, and women who have been the object of violence.

Chapters also address childbearing issues, including menstruation-related problems, infertility and its psychological implications, and antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum psychological disorders.

Developmental milestones, the impact of culture on mental illness, and global health issues are covered as well.

Tables and charts present key facts in an easy-to-read format.
