Summary Women and Health is a comprehensive reference that addresses health issues affecting women of all ages - from adolescence through maturity.

It covers key issues ranging from osteoporosis to breast cancer and other cancers, domestic violence, sexually transmitted diseases, occupational hazards, eating disorders, heart disease and other chronic illnesses, substance abuse, and societal and behavioral influences on health.
