This valuable book explores the individual and contextual factors-biological, sociocultural, economic, and environmental-that affect the quality and length of women's lives. Reflecting the rise of women's health issues to a national priority in the last decade, it examines current research on disease prevention and the need for health promotion, particularly with minority and hard-to-reach women. Prevention Issues for Women's Health in the New Millennium delves into prevention issues, such as the relationship of perceived susceptibility to breast cancer to the practice of breast self-examination in older women; the effectiveness of education and support services in rural health departments; the question of whether lesbians have greater/different health risks than heterosexual women; health promotion issues of importance to ethnic or minority women; and more!
