In contrast to the biomedical model that views women's health in pathological terms and as synonymous with reproductive health, Schuiling (Northern Michigan U. School of Nursing) and Likis (Frontier School of Midwifery and Family Nursing, Hyden, Kentucky) present a holistic, feminist approach. But unlike the philosophically-compatible Our Bodies, Our Selves books, this volume is also intended to support clinical practice. The 25 chapters treat health promotion, sexuality, unintended pregnancy, menopause, and gynecologic health problems that women experience. They also cover issues specific to lesbians, partner violence, and sexual abuse, and include resources. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
