Excerpt from The Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania: An Historical OutlineThe history of the movement for introducing wo men into the full practice of the medical profes sion is one of the most interesting of modern times. This movement has already achieved much, and far more than is often supposed. Yet the interest lies even less in what has been so far achieved than in the oppo sition which has been encountered, in the nature of this opposition, in the pretexts on which it has been sustained, and in the reasonings, more or less disin genuous, by which it has claimed its justification. The history, therefore, is a record not more of fact than of opinion. And the opinions expressed have often been so grave and solid in appearance, yet proved so frivolous and empty in view of the subse quent event, that their history is not unworthy of careful consideration among that of other solemn fol lies of mankind.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
