Produktbeschreibung

How does the body work?

Women in Medicine introduces kids to the field of medicine through the questions of a spunky girl. Readers will be introduced to the diverse world of medicine and the amazing work of women who have given us incredible things like a cure for malaria and a lifesaving heart surgery. From all across the globe and a variety of historical periods, the women include Dr. Helen Taussig, Xoquauhtli, Dr. Gerty Cori, Dr. Angella Ferguson, Tu Youyou, and Florence Nightingale.

Designed to motivate girls to learn more about the field of medicine and see the impact one person's questions and care can have on the world, this book has been peer reviewed by an extensive team of scientists, science educators, and parents. Concepts covered include doctors, nurses, midwives, surgeons, medicine, the human heart, blood, the Cori Cycle, disease, treatments, the Blalock-Taussig Shunt operation, sickle cell disease, diagnoses, Artemisinin, and data collection.

Part of the inspiring "Science Wide Open" series, Women in Medicine will encourage scientific inquiry in any young mind!
