This booklet will open your eyes. Barbara Ehrenrich and Deirdre
English show how, for reasons of class politics, women's
suppression and naked greed, wealthy men discredited, persecuted
and outright killed the wisewomen healers, leaving themselves to be
the sole practitioners of their 'scientific' medicine. The
information presented here gives a whole new perspective to medical
history and points to some of the causes underlying our current
healthcare mess. --WomanSource Catalog & Review
