Autor L. Bryder
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 mai 2010

Cuprins

Introduction Carcinoma in Situ: Meanings and Medical Significance Management of Patients with Carcinoma in situ The Therapeutic Relationship and Patient Consent A Profession Divided Population-based Cervical Screening Four Women Take on the Might of the Medical Profession The 'full story Behind the Inquiry': The Cartwright Inquiry and the Feminists Media Wars: The Report's Reception Women and the Cartwright Inquiry: Nurses, Midwives and Consumers Conclusion: An 'Unfortunate Experiment'

Recenzii

'This is an impressive book, tackling a grave and sensitive episode in the history of medicine, women and feminism. . . . Bryder reveals much about the public understanding (and misunderstanding) of science, the role of the media, and democratic practice in a world increasingly understood, managed and explained by cultures of expertise.'- Janet McCalman, Centre for Health& Society, University of Melbourne
'Professor Bryder has addressed a question that has remained inadequately investigated for over a quarter of a century. What was the 'generally accepted', 'conventional' treatment for abnormal cervical cytology which women in Auckland were allegedly denied in the late 1960s and 1970s? Her thorough review of international practice at that time makes clear that there was no generally accepted treatment, a fact that reflected the haphazard way in which screening for cancer of the cervix had been introduced and evaluated.'- Iain Chalmers, James Lind Library, Oxford
