All in Her Head: The Truth and Lies Early Medicine Taught Us about Women's Bodies and Why It Matters Today by Elizabeth Comen
informative
reflective
4.0
This expanded on some of the knowledge I already had of historical medicine. I wish she didn't reference her cancer patients as often as she did - at times the cases didn't feel like they related. There was also a little more repetitiveness than I would have liked, making it feel at times like it was trying to meet a page count. I would be curious to read more from Comen - she has great timing for humour within serious topics.
