A recent Harris Poll revealed some disturbing aspects of the
current state of health care provision for women and children. The
poll dealt with issues as diverse as clincial examinations and
communication between women and their doctors. Such issues, long
ignored or under-appreciated by medical researchers, clinicians,
and public policy makers, are increasingly receiving attention, not
only from public health experts, but also from politicians,
pressure groups, and the media. Reproductive Health Care for Women
and Babies addresses all the medical and societal aspects of health
care that go to form public health policy for women. The editors
have assembled an international team of contributors who provide
the reader with a truly global picture of the issues involved.
These features combine to provide a much better understanding of
the health care needs of women. Doctors will be able to take a
broader view of their role, beyond the traditional one of diagnosis
and treatment, and allow to communicate more effectively their
individual and collective views. Such a reorientation is essential
if physicians are to assume their proper role at the centre of the
formation of public health policy. For anybody involved in
providing health care for women and children this book is essential
reading.
