The author examines practitioners of medicine, as well as patients,
as embodied and sexed subjects in this book. She brings together
cultural and feminist theories on the body, 19th-century medical
history and the history of gender and Victorian feminism. The book
seeks to investigate the ways in which many different practitioners
- male and female doctors, nurses, midwives, accoucheurs - were
implicated in a discourse and a material practice about the pure
and the polluted.
