Book excerpt: Depression affects women almost twice as often as men, with about one in four women suffering from it at some point in her lifetime. While depression may strike at anytime, studies show that women appear to be particularly vulnerable during their childbearing years. This comprehensive and empathetic book confronts the seldom-talked-about issue of pregnancy-related depression, identifying symptoms, treatments, and cures for this constellation of serious, underdiagnosed, and surprisingly common emotional conditions.
