Rethinking Gender And Therapy by Susannah Izzard

Presents the contributions of psychoanalytic theory and sociological analysis to explore the interrelationship between the inner and outer worlds which impact on a woman's identity. This book helps therapists in their practices to draw upon an analysis of women's inner and outer worlds.
"By adopting a 'life course' approach, Izzard and Barden have enabled the reader to move through a collection of papers organized around the theme of particular stages in a woman's lifeThis is a sophisticated collection, posing and attempting to answer questions concerning the changing identities of women in the 21st century. This is a book that deserves to be widely read." - Ruth Waterhouse
