In the very first text of its kind, Women at War brings
together all available information and experience on
women’s physical and mental health in one resource
to enlighten the practitioners caring for them. Our
U.S Department of Defense is approximately 15%
women with over 300,000 women having deployed
since September 11th, 2001. This book reviews the
epidemiology, changes in policy and demographics of
women in the services, the factors affecting their health
and health care while serving in austere environments,
issues related to reproductive and urogenital health and
how health care providers can help prepare and prevent
illness. The book also looks at mental health issues to
include PTSD and other psychological effects of war,
intimate partner violence, sexual assault and suicide,
as well as the veteran experience. The book brings
together researchers, clinicians, and service member
experience and presents the information in a practical,
actionable format. It also highlights areas where data is
lacking and more study is demanded.
Special Features:
• This is the first full length volume on female service members in combat.
• Expands the discussion to all medical aspects of women in deployment.
