Product Description: Feminist icon Phyllis Cheslers pioneering work21/2 million copies soldrevised and updated for the first time in over 30 yearsThis definitive book was the first to address critical questions about women and mental health. Combining interviews with patients with an analysis of womens roles in history, society, and myth Chesler concludes that there is a terrible double standard when it comes to womens psychology. In this new edition, she addresses head-on many of the most relevant issues to women and mental health today, including eating disorders, social acceptance of antidepressants, addictions, sexuality, postpartum depression, and more. Women and Madness remains as important today as it was when first published in 1972.
