5528B Women & Medicine:Patients & Practitioners From Antiquity-Present (3) This course explores, in a selective fashion, the role of women in Western Medicine both as health care providers and patients. The subject of the history of medicine is too broad to be covered comprehensively in a semester, and so we will focus on diseases or physical conditions which were believed to be limited to women-childbirth, certain mental health conditions, reproductive health, breast cancer-as well as the increasing marginalization of women within the profession of health care providers to those branches concerned primarily with "women's problems."
