Product Description
Gender, Development and Health (International Development)
- Used Book in Good Condition
This collection of articles addresses the issue of health from a gender perspective. Health is not only a matter of science and biology, but also social and gender issue. While a biological advantage means female life expectancy should be longer than men's, in many contexts around the world women's rates of sickness and premature death outstrip those of men.
Issues covered include women's comparative lack of access to medical care throughout the life-cycle; mental health; why infectious diseases are a gender issue; the role of older women in health promotion; gender-sensitive monitoring and impact assessment of health projects; and women's gender-specific needs to control the number of children they bear and prevent exposure to sexually-transmitted disease, including HIV/AIDS. Authors include Alice Welbourn, Judi Aubel and Huda Zurayk..
