The women's health movement shocked and scandalised when it burst into Australian politics in the early 1970s. It cast the light of day onto taboo subjects such as sexual assault, abortion and domestic violence, provoking outrage and condemnation. Some of the services women created for themselves were subjected to police raids; sex education material was branded 'indecent'. Moreover, women dared to criticise revered institutions, such as the medical system. Yet for all its perceived radicalism, the movement was part of a much broader and relatively conventional international health reform push, which included the 'new' public health movement, the community health centre movement and, in Australia, the Aboriginal health movement, all of which were critical of the way medical systems had been organised during the 20th century. The women who joined the movement came from diverse backgrounds and included immigrant and refugee women, Aboriginal women and Anglo women. Initially, groups worked separately for the most part but as time went on, they found ways to cooperate and collaborate. This book presents an account of the ideas, the diverse and shared efforts and the enduring hard work of women's health activists, drawn together in one volume for the first time. This relentless activism gradually had an impact on public policy and slowly brought forth major attitudinal changes. The book also identifies the opportunities for health reform that were created along the way, opportunities which deserve to be more fully embraced.

In a society where fear has spread like wildfire, the surge in stress-induced illnesses should come as no surprise. To achieve harmonious health, we need to bring the mind and body to a less reactive state, where the stress cascade won't be initiated. Dr. Evelyne Leone guides us to the health threshold--the unshakable balance in body, mind, and spirit--with Into the Heart of Health. Learn how to: * combine modern medicine, psychology, and spiritual healing to ease ailments; * balance functions in the body, restoring energy and sleep; * cultivate an intuitive awareness about health; * start the healing process before visiting a doctor. "In this rapidly changing and unpredictable world, Dr. Leone stands boldly and beautifully among those health professionals who are both willing and equipped to deliver the facts about the true nature of healing, that no human being should be without." -- Dr. Joseph Michael Levry, CEO of Rootlight, author, and composer "I have known Dr. Leone for years and I find her to be a remarkable combination of being in the very forefront of modern medicine, a pioneer in understanding our psychological depths, a master of spiritual healing and a leading-edge thinker in the emerging field of functional medicine." -- Jean Houston, Ph.D. , Author and Chancellor of Meridian University

You don't have to age Contrary to popular belief, reaching middle age doesn't have to be a time of illness and decay. Health problems like weight gain, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and cardiovascular disease don't have to be "givens." In fact, middle age can be a time of thriving. It can be the most vibrant, healthy period of a person's life. In this book, author Kevin Brady explains how you can avoid illness and reverse aging. Using a simple framework-The Wheels of Health-he shows how to get control of your nutrition, exercise, sleep and mindfulness so you can reach peak health-no matter what your chronological age.

In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome.
