520    "More than 20 million American women and girls have some 
       form of disability, and this number will only increase in 
       the years to come. At the same time, women with 
       disabilities often have difficulty accessing health care 
       services, and the quality of the health care they do 
       receive is often worse than the care received by women 
       without disabilities and men with disabilities. The 
       consequences of these disparities include increased 
       prevalence of secondary complications, diminished quality 
       of life, and even premature death. In this book, 
       researchers from a range of disciplines, with expertise in
       a range of disabilities, investigate the causes and 
       consequences of these health care disparities and offer 
       plans for action to improve wellness, health promotion, 
       and disease prevention among this broad yet consistently 
       underserved population. Using an integrated care framework
       as a foundation, authors tackle the structural, 
       environmental, and social barriers that prevent women with
       disabilities from accessing effective and culturally-
       competent care and services, and address related issues 
       including psychosocial health, interpersonal violence, 
       health care policy, health promotion, disease prevention 
       programs, and telehealth, as well as reproductive and 
       sexual health, and dental care"--Publicity materials.
