Women in white coats : how the first women doctors changed the world of medicine / Olivia Campbell. by Campbell, Olivia, author. Toronto, Ontario : Park Row Books, [2021] Subjects Blackwell, Elizabeth, 1821-1910.   Anderson, Elizabeth Garrett, 1836-1917.   Jex-Blake, Sophia, 1840-1912.   Women physicians -- Great Britain -- Biography.   Women in medicine -- Great Britain -- Biography.   Medicine -- Great Britain -- History -- 19th century. ISBN:  9780778389392 (hardcover) : 0778389391 (hardcover) : Description:  361 pages ; 24 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "In the early 1800s, women were dying in large numbers from treatable diseases because they avoided receiving medical care. Examinations performed by male doctors were often demeaning and even painful. In addition, women faced stigma from illness--a diagnosis could greatly limit their ability to find husbands, jobs or be received in polite society. Motivated by personal loss and frustration over inadequate medical care, Elizabeth Blackwell, Elizabeth Garrett Anderson and Sophia Jex-Blake fought for a woman's place in the male-dominated medical field. For the first time ever, Women in White Coats tells the complete history of these three pioneering women who, despite countless obstacles, earned medical degrees and paved the way for other women to do the same. Though very different in personality and circumstance, together these women built women-run hospitals and teaching colleges--creating for the first time medical care for women by women." -- Inside front jacket flap.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 610.922 Ca   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 610.922 Campbell   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 610.922 CAMPBELL   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 610.922 Ca   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 610.922 Ca pbk Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 610.922 Ca   Checked out 05/10/2024 Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 610.922 Ca   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Nonfiction 610.922 Ca   Lost 03/17/2022 Add Copy to MyList
