The author, Carmen Casguet, combines her clinical experience with a social perspective to show how medical advances have gone hand in hand with the evolution of the role of women in society. A work that connects the history of the specialty with the cultural changes that have shaped several generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work stems from the reflections of a gynecologist approaching retirement, aware of the enormous scientific and social evolution she has witnessed. Throughout its pages, the author analyzes how the main advances in gynecology and obstetrics have been concentrated in the last fifty years, a period she has experienced firsthand. The account is not limited to medical progress, but contextualizes it within the social reality of women, historically relegated in education, religion, and public life. It addresses how the overcoming of superstitions and roles of submission has run parallel to the conquest of equality, a process that, according to the author, advances day by day. It is, therefore, a personal and professional testimony that invites us to understand the past to value the present of women's health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eEvolution of gynecology and obstetrics over the last half century.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eImpact of social changes on the health and role of women.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between medical advances and the achievement of gender equality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritique of the historical influence of religions and superstitions on women's medicine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eProfessional and personal testimony of a doctor about her career.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at health professionals, especially gynecologists and obstetricians, as well as medical students interested in the history of the specialty.
