Duden asserts that the most basic biological and medical terms that we use to describe our own bodies—male and female, healthy or sick—are cultural constructions. To illustrate this, she delves into records of an 18th-century German physician who documented the medical histories of 1,800 women of all ages and backgrounds, often in their own words.
