Mental health problems during and immediately after pregnancy are a major concern across the world. As well as affecting the health of the mother, they can have significant, harmful, and long term effects on the infant if not dealt with effectively. Perinatal Psychiatry honors the work of Channi Kumar, one of the seminal figures in the history of perinatal psychiatry, and presents a comprehensive multidisciplinary review of the field. Bringing together the leading researchers in the area, it covers the causes of perinatal mental health problems, the biology of perinatal depression and its more extreme form, puerperal psychosis, as well as psychosocial and psychological interventions, hormonal and neural substrates of perinatal depression, and risk factors and epidemiology.

The Legacy of Channi Kumar

Perinatal Psychiatry

A collection of poems - of thoughts and dreams, of loves won and loves lost. Some are sad and some are funny, but all are honest. What comes across in these poems is, above all else, her zest for life, hunger for excitement and thirst for adventure. Here is what some people had to say about Sue's work: ""I really enjoyed reading Sue's work. I think she has a real way with words, and her work will take you from laugh out loud to melancholy, and back again. I highly recommend it."" Ms. Natasha Sadaeva BA (Hons) ""Sue has taken a charming first step into the world of poetry. 'Mirror Mirror' and 'My PC' will be relatable to anybody facing frustrations in modern life. Her poems sometimes convey a reluctant sadness, notably in 'Just Three Words'. Keep writing."" Mr Gareth Sheldon BA (Hons)
