505 0  Introduction: A perspective on the social role of medicine
       -- Women and medicine in the late nineteenth and early 
       twentieth centuries -- The "sick" women of the upper 
       classes -- The "sickening" women of the working class -- 
       Notes on the situation today (1973) -- From here on: 
       concluding thoughts. 
520    "From prescribing the "rest cure" to diagnosing hysteria, 
       the medical profession has consistently treated women as 
       weak and pathological. Barbara Ehrenreich and Deirdre 
       English's concise history of the sexual politics of 
       medical practices shows how the biomedical rationale was 
       used to justify sex discrimination throughout the culture,
       and how its vestiges are evident in abortion policy and 
       other reproductive rights struggles today"--Provided by 
       publisher.
