Contemporary Topics in Women’s Mental Health 
Global perspectives in a changing society

Contemporary Topics in Women’s Mental Health: Global
Perspectives in a Changing Society considers both the mental
health and psychiatric disorders of women in relation to global
social change. The book addresses the current themes in psychiatric
disorders among women: reproduction and mental health, service
delivery and ethics, impact of violence, disasters and migration,
women’s mental health promotion and social policy, and
concludes each section with a commentary discussing important
themes emerging from each chapter. Psychiatrists, sociologists and
students of women’s studies will all benefit from this
textbook.

With a Foreword by Sir Michael Marmot, Professor of Epidemiology
and Public Health, University College London; Chair, Commission on
Social Determinants of Health
