Clean, tight, unmarked; spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; appears unread; "In this time, most medical practitioners, the male body was taken to be the norm; women were the other. From this attitude it was a short leap to viewing the normal functions of women's bodies as illnesses to be treated. This book considers the medical treatment of women within the context of what was available to physicians at the time."
