Manderson, L. (ed.)

Teaching gender, teaching women's health: Case studies in medical and health science education - Binghamton The Haworth Medical Press 2003 - 141p. - The Women and Health Monographic "Separates" .

A collection of cases studies discussing women?s participation in the provision of medical care and the implications of this on medical training and practice. The papers consider the ways in which gender issues are being introduced in premedical training and related health courses. They also explore innovations in medical education to enhance the quality of medical practice through the use of gender issues perspectives throughout the curricula. Other considerations are on the inclusion of gender from the respective points of view of primary health care trainers and researchers. The book suggests that health care policies and medical education have not taken into consideration the growing awareness of sex and gender differences.
