Prof. Margaret Ó hÓgartaigh - Gender and Medicine in Ireland, 1700-1950

The essays in Gender and Medicine in Ireland, 1700—1950 examine the intersections between gender, medicine, and conventional economic, political, and social histories in Ireland between 1700 and 1950. Margaret Ó hÓgartaigh gathered many of the top voices in Irish studies and the history of medicine, and covered a range of topics including midwifery, mental health, alcoholism, and infant mortality.
