Women's Health: Readings on Social, Economic, and Political Issues

Rating:
Summary: Pro Women in the 90's
Review: This text, written for a women's health course at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is a synopsis of topics related to women and health in the 90's. The authors take a cross-cultural perspective on topics and connect the social, economic, scientific, and political issues of womens' health issues such as poverty ageism, fatphobia, disability. There are worksheets included after some chapters to stimulate thoughts and prepare for discussion if used in a group or class setting.

I found it stimulating and a good resource for my women's health course.
