Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of Thirty Years in Baltimore From time to time my students in Goucher College have asked me to put into some permanent form the personal experiences and observations from which I drew many illustrations to emphasize special points in my course with them in personal and public hygiene. One year ago, when I talked informally to the Alumnae Council I said I should employ some of the leisure coming to me with my retirement from active connection with Goucher College in writing reminiscences of my life in Baltimore, covering as it has a very interesting period in the history of the education of women, of their political enfranchisement, of their organizations, and of their part in the applications of the principles of hygiene to social ills. In the year that has passed I have been asked a number of times about the book I had promised the Goucher Alumnae. I should probably have returned to Baltimore without any attempt at keeping this promise had not a combination of circumstances in the last week thrown me so completely on my own resources that I took to my pad and pencil as a last resort for amusement and diversion. I arrived at this charming resort on Lake Maggiore in the rain. For five days and nights it rained almost without intermission, sometimes gently when we ventured out of doors, but mostly in torrents which kept us under shelter. Walking, motoring, lake trips were impossible and no books were available for reading. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Lilian Welsh was a dynamic force behind the development of women's physical education facilities in the United States, using Goucher College as her pulpit. She was a tireless advocate for women's advancement in education, physical health and suffrage. She persuasively argued that all of that could be in in vain as women could only advance once granted the right to vote. She was outspoken about monitoring food quality, extending access to education, and awareness about hygiene and public health. Reminiscences of Thirty Years is an important document for understanding the development of suffrage and its impact, and a unique look at the life of a female physician during a tumultuous period. As the Professor of Hygiene and Health at Goucher College, located in Towson, Maryland, her papers are held in the Goucher College Special Collections Department.

Book Synopsis American Classicist by : Victoria Houseman
Download or read book American Classicist written by Victoria Houseman and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-10-03 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A biography of the remarkable woman whose bestselling Mythology has introduced millions of readers to the classical world Edith Hamilton (1867–1963) didn’t publish her first book until she was sixty-two. But over the next three decades, this former headmistress would become the twentieth century’s most famous interpreter of the classical world. Today, Hamilton’s Mythology (1942) remains the standard version of ancient tales and sells tens of thousands of copies a year. During the Cold War, her influence even extended to politics, as she argued that postwar America could learn from the fate of Athens after its victory in the Persian Wars. In American Classicist, Victoria Houseman tells the fascinating life story of a remarkable classicist whose ideas were shaped by—and aspired to shape—her times. Hamilton studied Latin and Greek from an early age, earned a BA and MA at Bryn Mawr College, and ran a girls’ prep school for twenty-six years. After retiring, she turned to writing and began a relationship with the pianist and stockbroker Doris Fielding Reid. The two women were partners for more than forty years and entertained journalists, diplomats, and politicians in their Washington, D.C., house. Hamilton traveled extensively around the world, formed friendships with Gertrude Stein and Ezra Pound, and was made an honorary citizen of Athens. While Hamilton believed that the ancient Greeks represented the peak of world civilization, Houseman shows that this suffragist, pacifist, and anti-imperialist was far from an apologist for Western triumphalism. An absorbing narrative of an eventful life, American Classicist reveals how Hamilton’s Greek and Roman worlds held up a mirror to midcentury America even as she strived to convey a timeless beauty that continues to enthrall readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before 1850, the field of medicine was almost completely closed to women. In 1850, a group of radical reformist male Quaker physicians and associates founded the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania to offer formal medical training to women. By the 1890s, under the guidance of a series of pioneering women deans, the school grew into a progressive medical collegem re-named the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania (WMC). This development occurred despite the stubborn and at times near violent opposition of most of the male medical community of Philadelphia.

Download or read book William Osler written by Michael Bliss and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2002-04-01 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his time the most famous physician in the world, Canadian-born William Osler (1849-1919) is still the best-known figure in the history of medicine. This new, definitive biography by Michael Bliss is the first full-scale life of Osler to appear since 1925. An award-winning medical historian, Bliss draws on many untapped sources to recreate Osler's life and medical times for a new generation of readers. Born at Bond Head, north of Toronto, Osler rose from obscurity to become the greatest medical teacher and writer in three countries. At Canada's McGill University, America's Johns Hopkins University, and finally as regius professor at Oxford, Osler was idolized by two generations of medical students and practitioners, for whom he came to personify the ideal doctor. His quest was to bring high standards and scientific methods into general practice in the medical world and to give teaching hospitals a solid place in the education of doctors. The publication of his book, The Principles and Practice of Medicine (1892), established him as the authority of modern medicine, a position he held well into the new century. Osler was revered as the high priest of the advent of twentieth-century medicine. In this fine biography, Michael Bliss animates the epic quality of Osler's life - not only in telling his personal story, but in setting that story against the dramatic backdrop of the coming of modern medicine. Winner of the Jason A. Hannah Medal, awarded by the Royal Society of Canada and the Hannah Institute for the History of Medicine
Book Synopsis Sympathy and Science by : Regina Morantz-Sanchez
Download or read book Sympathy and Science written by Regina Morantz-Sanchez and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2005-10-12 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When first published in 1985, Sympathy and Science was hailed as a groundbreaking study of women in medicine. It remains the most comprehensive history of American women physicians available. Tracing the participation of women in the medical profession from the colonial period to the present, Regina Morantz-Sanchez examines women's roles as nurses, midwives, and practitioners of folk medicine in early America; recounts their successful struggles in the nineteenth century to enter medical schools and found their own institutions and organizations; and follows female physicians into the twentieth century, exploring their efforts to sustain significant and rewarding professional lives without sacrificing the other privileges and opportunities of womanhood. In a new preface, the author surveys recent scholarship and comments on the changing world of women in medicine over the past two decades. Despite extraordinary advances, she concludes, women physicians continue to grapple with many of the issues that troubled their predecessors.
