1865180002London: Judd and Glass 1865. First edition of this unrecorded report on Britain's first medical institution devoted to the care of women. It was founded in 1842 by Protheroe Smith a pioneering obstetrician and the first physician in London to administer chloroform in childbirth. The Soho Square "hospital embodied moral and social views about the 'special' nature of femininity" and was guided by Smith's 1810-1882 fervent evangelical beliefs Moscucci p. 75. It was distinguished by its closed-wards policy: "This was a pledge to debar medical students from the wards of the new hospital which was no doubt intended to secure public support for the project: ever since men-midwives had entered the lying-in chamber the suspicion that obstetricians violated women's modesty had proved one of the major obstacles to the advance of the male practitioners of midwifery" Moscucci p. 82. Women were also able to stay longer in Soho than at general hospitals allowing it to more effectively treat chronic and work-related conditions. Although the hospital was originally met with scepticism and concerns about morality in the ensuing decades its reputation improved to such an extent that it was able to secure royal patronage this report recording its present supporters as Alexandra Princess of Wales and Mary Adelaide Duchess of Cambridge. They were later joined by Queen Victoria herself who donated £500 in 1885. Small octavo. Original green printed wrappers. Central crease from folding worming to rear joint resulting in a little loss rear cover mottled and damp stained: a very good copy.

1910231281910. Women's History Women in scientific and medical laboratories photo archive documenting female participation in laboratory education microscopy chemical work dental training and technical employment across the first half of the twentieth century providing concrete visual evidence of how women entered scientific institutions in the years before full professional parity. The group brings together press and non-press photographs with identifiable news-service and reference-file markings that place several images within the public circulation of women's technical labor. Many of these photographs show women operating microscopes handling laboratory equipment conducting demonstrations and working within instructional and testing settings making the group especially effective as evidence of women's participation in scientific education industrial science and medical training.<br /> <br /> Photo archive of 10 silver gelatin photographs various sizes ranging from 2" x 3 to 7 x 10 inches United States and around the globe circa 1910-1946. The group includes a 1934 press photograph of Victoria Fischer in a laboratory identified on the verso as connected to Tokio Girl's Medical College in Japan shown standing at a bench with pipette flask and rack of test tubes; a 1946 photograph of Kinjian Laboratory showing a large coeducational classroom of students in white lab coats seated and standing around laboratory tables with test tubes and other equipment in hand; and a circa 1920s non-press photograph of four dental students all young women in lab coats seated around a table of instruments. Another non-press photograph circa 1930 identifies the senior female students of Mother Catherine High School and shows an all-female laboratory class with biological and ecological samples in the foreground bell jars between table and shelving and additional worktables beyond. A thick matted photograph with black border circa 1910 shows a skylit laboratory interior with approximately twenty-five men and four women gathered around long benches. Press photographs include a March 4 1941 Ottawa image of a woman operating a high-powered microscope in a gauge testing laboratory; a 1930s U.S. Testing Company Laboratories image from Hoboken New Jersey showing a woman in the fiber analysis section at a microscope bench; a 1933 press image of a woman and man conducting an experiment involving heated metal apparatus; and a 1924 Washington D.C. press photograph identifying Theresa Karger as chief of the chemical laboratory at Mount Alto U.S. Veterans Hospital described as one of the women in unusual employment. <br /> The archive aligns with a long period in which women entered scientific and medical work through segregated colleges women's schools wartime necessity industrial laboratories and specialized technical training often gaining access first in educational or auxiliary settings before achieving broader professional recognition. Its international scope is a particular strength: the photographs place women in laboratory systems from the the beginning of the century through World War II and the immediate postwar period showing how female students technicians and researchers across studied and contributed to science. Minor corner and edge wear and residue on versos from press filing stamps and caption mounts; overall good condition. A concise and materially grounded record of women's scientific labor and educational access as women's presence in STEM moved from exceptional visibility into institutional practice. unknown
18512970Philadelphia: G.S. Harris 1851. First edition. Very Good . Original blue printed paper wraps printed to front. Some chipping and creasing to edges but overall intact and undamaged despite being quite delicate. Light scattered foxing throughout. Ownership signature of the college's original dean N.R. Mosely struck out at the top of the Faculty list on page 4; pencil ticks next to the names of several students listed in the catalogue on page 6. Exceptionally rare OCLC lists copies of this Announcement at only 2 institutions.<br/><br/>Only one year after Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell graduated valedictorian and became the first female M.D. in the U.S. the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania opened its doors. Located in Philadelphia it was the only the second school to open with the mission of training women in medicine -- having been preceded by the New England Female Medical College two years earlier in 1848. Founded by Quaker abolitionist and Underground Railroad activists who believed that women could make exceptional doctors "the college provided rare opportunities for women to teach perform research manage a medical school and with the eventual establishment of the Woman's Hospital in 1861 learn and practice in a hospital setting. It was the longest-lasting all-women medical school in the nation until it became coeducational in 1970" Mandell. The present Announcement predates these growths however showing the roots from which they emerged. One year running and the faculty remain largely male because there has yet to be an inaugural graduating class this would come in 1852; but already a female student Hannah E. Longshore is listed as a Demonstrator in Anatomy. Indeed Longshore and her sister Anna would both be part of the inaugural class of the college with the latter going on the author Discourses to Women in Medical Subjects 1897. Indeed the majority of women listed in this catalogue went on to become doctors even when it took time -- as it did for Hannah W. Ellis and Susanna H. Ellis both listed among the graduates of the 1865 class. 12 pages in all this scarce pamphlet contains Officers Corporators Faculty and Students of the school; an Announcement on the school's missions and accomplishments; information on Specialties available; Terms of enrollment; and a list of required Textbooks. It also conveys the excitement optimism and pride of those involved. "The Faculty of the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania are inspired by very different feelings from those that attended their efforts one year ago. Then they were about to enter into an untried path to engage in a great experiment.But that which was an experiment is an experiment no longer.give a woman knowledge commensurate with her natural qualifications enable her to go forth healing the sick and comforting the afflicted and she will bless the world." A rare survivor documenting that pivotal moment when women had been given the chance to prove their intellect rose to the challenge and made the future of the next female students more secure.

19163202London: The Scientific Press 1916. First edition. Very Good . Scarce first edition of a Red Cross manual designed both for emergency workers and women in the home. Original publisher's cloth binding titled in red on spine and front board. Boards a bit rubbed and soiled corners bumped. Faint offsetting to the endpapers. Inscribed by Edith Newsome on the front pastedown: "With the Author's Compliments Edith Newsome. 16.10.23." A scarce book institutionally and in trade OCLC reports only 11 copies in libraries this being the only one currently on the market. <br/><br/>Edith Newsome's first major work on nursing produced after she realized that her Red Cross lecture series could not provide complete enough information to train "those who have so nobly responded to the 'call of duty'; to do all that is in their power to tend and succour the brave men of our nation by proving themselves valuable and intelligent helpers." Indeed Newsome's work was released two years into World War I -- the first modern war which brought with it a horrifying number of previously unknown injuries and ailments. In addition to professional nurses women enrolled to assist as Volunteer Aid Detachments VADs because there simply were not enough women with medical educations to serve the nation's need. The present work is a stirring acknowledgement of this. Comprehensive in training VADs and new nurses in field operations it also contains information for women in the home who confronted infection illness or injury and served as domestic caretakers for men returning from the front.

16189Original vintage photograph of a female teacher directing male medical students dissecting a cadaver c. 1890. Black and white 3"x5" with back matting. One woman surrounded by four men lean over a table with a skeleton. Behind them is a chalkboard with anatomical pull down charts. Although women had participated in the informal practice of medicine for hundreds of years the United States and most industrialized nations did not allow women into the formal practice of medicine until the latter half of the 19th century. This female doctor was part of the first generation formally accepted by medical institution. She wears a medal indicating her importance and perhaps former military involvement. Early photographs of women in medicine are very rare photograph of surgery or dissection much rarer. <br/><br/>Women practiced in the medical field for hundreds of years until new licenser rules established in the Victorian era provided a means for their exclusion. The story of how women reclaimed their role in medicine is one of resourcefulness and determination. In 1849 the first American woman graduated medical school. The path was difficult; few medical schools would accepted them and the reception was not always welcoming. Female doctors were called not only to prove their ability to practice medicine but to justify their unique necessity to the field. Of all the specialties the most embattled for women is surgery; early on they faced a challenge obtaining education training and facilities. A perennial argument was that cadaver dissection necessary to training was inappropriate for the delicate female disposition. However this Victorian-era photograph showing a woman capably participating in cadaver dissection proves that in the words of Dr. Mary Putnam Jacobi the best known female doctor in 1891 "It is perfectly evident.that the opposition to women physicians has rarely been based upon any sincere conviction that women could not be instructed in medicine but upon an intense dislike to the idea that they should be. unknown books
