Book Description
Originally published in 1861, this landmark work by physician and feminist Samuel Gregory argued forcefully for the importance of women's health and the need for female physicians. Written at a time when women were excluded from medical schools and few options for healthcare were available to them, Gregory's letter helped to spur the establishment of educational opportunities and professional resources for women in medicine. This updated edition provides valuable historical context and a powerful reminder of the ongoing struggle for women's rights and health.

Book Description
Excerpt from Letter to Ladies, in Favor of Female Physicians for Their Own Sex Tins Letter has long been out of print, and its republication has been neglected because its place has in part been supplied by the Annual Reports of the Female Medical Education Society, and other documents. But many good judges think the professional education of females will be promoted by the continued circulation of the work, and it is accordingly republished. Great progress has been made in the cause of female medical education within the four years since the date of this letter. Institutions for the purpose have sprung up, and the object has become familiar to the public mind, and a matter of interest throughout the country. The New England Female Medical College, located in this city, and conducted and sustained by the society above named, has become known as one of our permanent and important institutions, and, through the legis lature, has received the sanction and pecuniary aid of the commonwealth. Many of its graduates are already reaping the rewards of their professional success, and it has become a settled question that the exercise of the healing art is henceforth to be a sphere of employment and usefulness for women.

Appeal to Husbands and Wives in Favour of Female Physicians

Book Description
Originally published in 1976 The Rise of the Medical Profession combines a sociological and historical approach to the rise of the medical profession in England. Sociologically it offers a theoretical framework which for the first time links the study of social mobility and professionalism with the theory of stratification. Historically, it examines the movement which led to the unification of the medical profession arising from effective social organisation among the surgeon-apothecaries in the early nineteenth century. It demonstrates that through the successful pursuit of the occupational strategy of professionalism the doctors have been able to raise their income and status in the community and to dominate the institutions and organisations of medical care. In their relationship with the state, they have been generally successful in securing a recognition of their privileged position. The future of the medical profession and of professionalism is discussed in the context of the changing balance between state power and that of free private occupation associations, whether of the type based on professionalism or unionism. The ideal-type conception of the middle class as essentially individualistic is challenged by the exploration of middle class collective action, particularly professionalism.
