Women's Health

A Relational Perspective Across the Life Cycle

By: Judith A. Lewis,Judith Bernstein

This book provides an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to women’s health. Historical, sociocultural, psychological and biophysiological aspects of women’s development are woven together to provide a complete women-centered perspective of health. While several excellent books in print provide information on diagnosis and treatment of women and address women’s growth and development, Lewis and Bernstein strive to fill a void by marrying these perspectives. The book also offers a thorough investigation into the life cycle of women, And The roles of women as individuals and members of their communities and cultures.

Light Elements

Essays in Science from Gravity to Levity

By: Judith Stone

An award-winning columnist for Discover magazine takes a light look at hard science. If science had been this funny in school, maybe you would have listened. Part stand-up comic, part gonzo journalist, Discover magazine's Judith Stone can sniff out strange science at five paces. This offbeat collection of her trenchant, witty essays explodes the boundaries of science, with outrageous insights and surprising factual information that will keep you laughing and learning. Praise for Light Elements "You need this book, because it contains Amazing Science Facts, such as how the entire world could be destroyed by cows. Also there's a fascinating chapter on getting yourself mummified. This would be after your death, of course. Which could be any day now, what with these cows. You definitely need this book."--Dave Barry "Ms. Stone is a boon to those who stopped listening after fourth-grade science. She is witty and knowledgeable. I can't believe it's actually fun."--Wendy Wasserstein "It's full of interesting information and it's really funny. If that's not what you're looking for, you're not looking for a book. Why not try a good appliance store?"--Penn & Teller

The Mind and Mood of Aging

Mental Health Problems of the Community Elderly in New York and London

By: Barry Gurland,John Copeland,Judith Kuriansky,Michael Kelleher,Lawrence Sharpe,Laura Lee Dean

Originally published in 1983, this cross-national study had three aims. First, to examine the cross-national differences among the elderly community in the prevalence of psychiatric problems and their relationship to other health and social problems. Second, to examine the differences in health care of aged people, with a view to providing a framework for improvement of health and support services to those elderly with psychiatric problems who reside in the community. Finally, the differences in the course and outcome of psychiatric disability with implications for the role of healthcare and community resources in reducing chronic disability or its consequences. This study included the examination of two randomly drawn probability samples of people over the age of sixty-five years and resident in the cities of New York and London. The people studied were reinterviewed after one year in order to record their use of health services and the course of their symptoms, or the development of new symptoms. Social and medical factors were studied in relation to psychopathological conditions.
