O knihe
"The Hands of a Woman" is an historical fiction account of the British surgeon, James Barry. A pioneering figure in 19th-century medicine, James Barry was a transgender woman who defied societal norms to achieve remarkable success as a surgeon. Disguised as a man, Barry overcame significant obstacles to obtain a medical education and revolutionize surgical practices. Renowned for her groundbreaking work in improving sanitary conditions, Barry was the first to successfully perform a caesarean section, saving both mother and child. Her exceptional contributions to the field culminated in her appointment as Inspector General, the second-highest medical rank in the British Army.
