Written in a scholarly but accessible style, this book provides an integrated critical analysis of lesbian and bisexual women's health. Reflecting the complexity of the field, it will be interesting and useful to health professionals, students, and academicians. The book highlights trends and themes, with selected examples of research and personal experience of lesbians and bixsexual women and their health care providers.

The goals of the book are: to intergrate and analyze the multi-disciplinary literature on lesbian and bixsexual women's health; to enhance the readers' understanding of research methodology and analysis, increasing their ability to critique and grasp the implications of future research; to explore socio-cultural influences on the health of lesbians and bisexuals; to provide a text to be used in academic settings; to analyze voids, problems and future directions.

Written from a public health perspective, this work integrates material from a multitude of disciplines including medicine, nursing, sociology, psychology. It utilizes this research base along with personal interviews//cases to answer questions that many lesbian and bisexual women ( and their health care providers) ask. What have we learned about our health?; what are our health risks?; what are we doing to protect ourselves?; can we trust medical confidentially?; and where can we go from here regarding health care and communication?.
