Simultaneously, critical feminist approaches to the intersections of different forms of violence and health are rare in Global Health literature. Bringing together feminist Peace Research and Global Health scholarships, this edited book aims to enrich both scholarly traditions. On the one hand, the book provides perspectives from feminist Peace Research that help us to understand and analyse different forms of violence in the gendered realm of global health. On the other hand, the variety of empirical cases analysed in the chapters widens the horizons of Peace Research, in its understanding of what it means to study violence, peace, and justice in everyday lives. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe themes dealt in the chapters of the book vary from questions of reproductive health, to non-communicable (e.g. breast cancer) and communicable diseases (e.g. HIV\/AIDS), war-time sexual violence, mental health, therapeutic justice, domestic violence, and ageing and dementia. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis text will help students and researchers alike navigate Global Health through a feminist lens.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiina Vaittinen is Academy of Finland Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Tampere University, Finland. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCatia C.
