Women’s Health Psychology is the first comprehensive collection ever published to consider the developmental, reproductive, and sociocultural contexts of health decision-making and behavior for women. It provides current, expert advice to help policy makers, researchers, and clinicians make the best decisions concerning topics including:
* The Context of Women’s Health: history of women’s healthcare, employment and women’s health, and the effects of intimate partner violence
* Health Challenges: smoking, alcohol, eating disorders, and sleep
* Reproductive Health: premenstrual dysphoric disorder, the stress of infertility, psychiatric symptoms and pregnancy, and menopause
* Disability and Chronic Conditions: women’s responses to disability, experiencing cancer, the psychology of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and rheumatic, heart, and Alzheimer’s diseases
