Aprašymas

This book delves into the critical issue of cancer as one of the leading causes of death for women across diverse backgrounds, highlighting the alarming racial disparities across healthcare for women that affect mortality rates for Black, Indigenous, and Women of Color.

Though heart disease is the number one (21.8%) leading cause of death for females of all races, origins, and ages, cancer is a close second at 20.7%. The experiences of women in cancer range across identities and the systems in which they exist. Cancer does not only impact the diagnosed, but all those around them. This volume provides a wealth of information for consideration for both mental health and medical professionals.

This book is an invaluable resource for students and researchers in mental health and psychology, as well as healthcare providers and policymakers interested in public health, women's studies, and healthcare.

The chapters in this book were originally published in the Journal of Feminist Family Therapy.
