Reviews / Votes
"This book is indeed a valuable source for those working with women who experience postnatal depression."-The Psychiatrist
"The writing style is natural, informal, clear, and easy to read. ... will undoubtedly provide a valued resource for a range of healthcare professionals, especially those providing care within the postnatal period. Furthermore, it would be useful for a family member or a friend who can provide support using the book as a guide."
