Women in Medicine

Stories from the Girls in White

Beschreibung

The history of women in medicine are celebrated in books, awards, names of buildings and organizations. In contrast, the generation who began the change are seldom memorialized; yet without the efforts of these few in what was an unambiguously a male profession, the achievements of the pioneers could easily have withered.
