Summary:
"Women's health is a complex topic and it can be challenging to accurately and adequately address all the needs of every instructor. And depending on the focus of the course, many instructors will base their materials on current event documents and the courses can take more of a societal and political approach. However, this is a product that has continued to be steady in sales YOY and edition to edition. The eighth edition of New Dimensions in Women's Health will continue to present a practical and biological approach to understanding the health of all women inclusive of race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, culture and sexual orientation. Each chapter will comprehensively review an important aspect of women's health and examines the contributing epidemiological, historical, psycho-social, cultural, ethical, legal, political and economic influences"-- Provided by publisher.
