"Witches, Midwives, & Nurses: A History of Women Healers" explores the historical roles of women in healing professions. It highlights how, throughout history, women have been central to healing practices, serving as midwives, herbalists, and caretakers. The book illustrates the societal values and norms that have often marginalized women's contributions, particularly through the witch hunts of the past, which targeted women healers as threats to patriarchal structures. The author delves into the shift from midwifery to nursing and the impact of medicalization in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This transition often displaced women from autonomous roles and placed healing under male-dominated medical institutions. By examining various historical periods, the book contextualizes the evolution of healthcare from women's traditional practices to modern nursing. Ultimately, the work serves not only as a historical account but also as a call to recognize and reclaim the importance of women healers in the health care narrative. It challenges contemporary views on women's roles in medicine, promoting a renewed appreciation for the knowledge and skills of female practitioners throughout history.
