Making Women's Medicine Masculine: The Rise of Male Authority in Pre-Modern Gynaecology
Green, Monica H. (Professor of History, Arizona State University)
Using sources ranging from the famous 12th-century female practitioner, Trota of Salerno, through to the great tomes of Renaissance male physicians, this is a pioneering study challenging the common belief that, prior to the 18th century, men were never involved in any aspect of women's healthcare in Europe.
