Crazy for you: The making of women's madness

Focuses on why women experience more of certain health problems than men by exploring connected issues. These include: an examination of how science, from the 19th Century onwards, has seen women as 'sick' and as a problem; how psychological theory in general, and Freudian views on women in particular, disserviced women and their mental health; how the reality of women's lives are inimical to the development and maintenance of a robust sense of well-being. 240 pages.
