Offering an antidote to discussions of health and wellness that overlook the diversity of women's experiences, THE LESBIAN HEALTH BOOK brings together a wide range of voices from the lesbian community—doctors and other health care providers, women facing illness or life changes, health activists and many others. This volume highlights personal and community efforts to make health care accessible and responsive to lesbians.
