Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. When China's War of
Resistance against Japan began in July 1937, it sparked an
immediate health crisis throughout China. In the end, China not
only survived the war but emerged from the trauma with a more
cohesive population. Intimate Communities argues that women who
worked as military and civilian nurses, doctors, and midwives
during this turbulent period built the national community, one
relationship at a time. In a country with a majority illiterate,
agricultural population that could not relate to urban elites'
conceptualization of nationalism, these women used their work of
healing to create emotional bonds with soldiers and civilians from
across the country. These bonds transcended the divides of social
class, region, gender, and language.
