Excerpt from Medicine as a Profession for WomenIN inviting consideration to the subject of medicine as an occupation for women, it is not a simple theory that we wish to present, but the results of practical experience. For fourteen years we have been students of medicine; for eight years we have been engaged in the practice of our profession in New York and during the last five years have, in addition, been actively occupied in the support of a medical charity. We may there fore venture to speak with some certainty on this subject; and we are supported by the earnest sympathy of large numbers of intelligent women, both in England and America, in presenting this subject for the first time to the public.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
