Men, Women and Madness: Understanding Gender and Mental Disorder de Joan Busfield

Men, Women and Madness: Understanding Gender and Mental Disorder

Autor Joan Busfield
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 mai 1996
This book focuses on the complex patterning of mental disorder identified in men and women. The first part of the book examines the gendered landscape of mental disorder, key concepts and approaches, and the way in which gender is embedded in constructs of mental disorder. The second part considers theories of the causes of mental disorder and the extent to which the different causes can account for the gendered landscape of disorder. It concludes with a discussion of the policy implications of the analysis.
