OverviewIn the decades since the 1970s women have transformed the way their own bodies, and their health, are understood. As this volume shows, women have changed the curriculum at medical schools, research on the specifics of women's biology has begun, and efforts to address diseases like HIV/AIDS world-wide are revealing the ways in which women's social and legal subordination affects their health. With breaking news on hormone replacement therapy a feminist debate on breast cancer treatments, a report on current healthcare for peasant women in Mexico and more, this issue of Women Studies Quarterly demonstrates the need for on-going change while celebrating the strides the women's health movement has made.
