A review by emilykfitzgerald
Unwell Women: Misdiagnosis and Myth in a Man-Made World by Elinor Cleghorn

Did not finish book. Stopped at 37%.

This book gives an interesting glimpse into the history of female healthcare but is severely lacking in intersectionality diversity, mostly of the talking points are from a posh white perspective.
