Good textbook.

Loved the feminist perspective

[Hannah · Rating 4 out of 5]

Women's health from a holistic and feminist perspective. Each topic has a good review of both conventional and integrative approaches. Includes topics that are often overlooked in other texts (ie intimate partner violence). The pictures are great. I've found a couple of editing errors and that's pretty much my only complaint. I will refer to this book frequently.

A real pageturner!
