Nowadays mental disorder is often seen as a typically female
malady. This book rejects this claim, focusing on the complex
patterning of mental disorder identified in men and women. The
first part of the book - on fundamentals - examines the gendered
landscape of mental disorder, key concepts and approaches, and the
way in which gender is embedded in constructs of mental disorder.
The second part, on the origins of mental disorder, considers
theories of the causes of mental disorder and the extent to which
the different causes can account for the gendered landscape of
disorder. It concludes with a discussion of the policy implications
of the analysis.
