It was well-written and seemingly well-researched. - Goodreads Light reading for intro-feminists. - Goodreads Strong, clear writing throughout. - Goodreads I also found the writing style to be convoluted. - Goodreads User Review - Flag as inappropriate Not exactly an 'easy read' but very, very interesting and enlightening on the history of the medical profession's early days in the U.S. as it relates to women's health care. Review: For Her Own Good: Two Centuries of the Experts' Advice to WomenUser Review - GoodreadsDefinitely a bit chunky, but overall a good insight into both women's and medical history. Related books
