Description: |
This text offers a gendered and cross-cultural analysis of the experience of mental disorder and of society's response to its sufferers. It discusses the differences and similarities between both legal and lay definitions of mental disorder and corresponding patterns of service provision and usage. |
Synopsis: |
Gender & Mental Health is an exciting textbook written from a policy perspective. Based on up-to-date information from Europe and the United States, it focuses not only on the individual experience of mental disorder for both men and women, but also on a range of mental health policy issues, including law and crime. It will be extremely useful to a broad range of students (sociology, social policy and gender studies) and professionals (social work, nursing, legal and medical). |
