Abstract
This review article considers four recent British women's health handbooks by women, in particular the first British edition of Our Bodies, Ourselves , the book first produced by the Boston Women's Health Book Collective. The books are analysed in relation to their usefulness as practical guides and their analyses of health and health care for women. It is suggested that the existence of the National Health Service in Great Britain poses some special problems for feminist analyses and action in the field of health, and that such analyses must go beyond an individualistic approach to health.
