Medical Bondage: Race, Gender, and the Origins of American Gynecology by Deirdre Cooper Owens

4.0

Every healthcare professional (frankly, everyone) should read this book. This book highlights the stories of African and Irish women who helped to pioneer the field of gynecology, yet received no credit. They underwent unspeakable abuse yet helped to advance this field of medicine that we benefit from today. Highly recommend!!
