Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell Influence of Women in the Profession of Medicine

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I think, therefore, that all will see the importance Of considering the future of this growing army of medical women; and I particularly desire that our students of medicine should realize the far-reaching character, the social effects of this medical career which they are entering on. It is quite certain that the wide adoption of the medical profession by women cannot continue to be an insignificant matter; it must exercise an appreciable effect on future society, for good or evil.
