商品簡介
In introducing a dozen essays and four book reviews, Chrisler (psychology, Connecticut College, New London) notes that feminist theory and therapy has tended to focus on women's physique rather than physiology in compensating for sexist views. The contributors, most are members of the Society for Menstrual Cycle Research, treat reproductive health and transitions as positive, relevant clinical issues. One points out that post-partum depression can also affect men, and another reviews the provocative book, Is Menstruation Obsolete? (Coutinho & Segal, 1999). This volume was co-published as Women and Therapy , v.27, no.3/4, 2004. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
