The Excellent Doctor Blackwell: The Life of the First Female Physician New edition
Julia Boyd
On 25 January 1849, Elizabeth Blackwell became the first woman to earn a degree from a recognised medical college. As a 'doctress', she addressed taboo subjects such as venereal disease, prostitution and masturbation. This biography uncovers the life of this pioneering woman doctor whose vision and guts in the face of odds changed social history.
