Sommario/riassunto |
|
An international team of clinicians and mental health experts examine the biological, endocrinological, epidemiological, reproductive, psychological and social aspects of schizophrenia as experienced by women. They assess the sex-specific issues and evaluate their therapeutic and clinical implications. This book is essential reading for all clinicians involved with mental health and also with women's health. |
