Reviews

Overall, this book is a much-needed contribution to the field of psychiatry. It provides a comprehensive review of psychiatric concerns as they relate to reproduction, with an excellent examination of mental illness and its interplay with pregnancy. I recommend this book to any psychiatrist who treats patients who are pregnant or could become pregnant.
