While women comprise the largest segement of health workers, health consumers, and health decision-makers for their families and communities, it has often been difficult for women to make themselves heard. Women's Health focuses on women's health issues from multiple perspectives and draws upon research and practice that include both qualitative and quantitative methodologies in data collection and knowledge formation.Women's Health incorporates work that has been produced from grassroots investigations of women's health issues and addresses specific health issues, diversity issues, and a variety of issues previously unexplored. In an effort to exemplify alternative forms of knowledge collection, and the importance of inclusiveness, diversity, and realism when understanding the various facets of women's health, Women's Health also highlights the work of women whose voices may not normally be heard or recognized - in a way that stretches beyond the traditional parameters of knowledge-sharing practices.

Despite being a two-time recipient of a Governor-General's Literary Award and the author of Earth and High Heaven - the acclaimed wartime novel that soared to number one on the New York Times bestseller list - Gwethalyn Graham slipped into relative obscurity. In this compelling biography, Barbara Meadowcraft seeks to restore Graham to her rightful place in the annals of Canadian literary and cultural history. Writer, feminist, and social activist, and at the heart of Montreal's intellectual community in the 1930s and '40s, Graham was outspoken in her exploration of such issues as racial intolerance and anti-Semitism at a time when few other Canadian writers dared to be. She was also enthusiastic about Quebec's ""revolution tranquille,"" insisting that English Canada must strive to accommodate the aspirations of the Quebecois. Sadly, Graham's promising career was cut short by her death from brain cancer at age 52. This discerning and engaging look at Graham's life and work captures the essence of this remarkably accomplished and inspired woman who defied convention, fought for social justice, and fearlessly challenged contemporary prejudicial thinking.
