Outrageous Practices: The Alarming Truth About how medicine mistreats Women
( Women's health is threatened by gender bias on three fr...)
Women's health is threatened by gender bias on three fronts: bias against women patients, bias against women doctors, health practitioners, and medical scientists, and bias against women as medical research subjects. Outrageous Practices, a highly acclaimed best-seller newly available in paperback, chronicles the history of a prejudiced health care establishment and shows how the current system remains captive to male-dominated medicine and research. The book examines how gender discrimination manifests itself in hospitals, physicians's and psychiatrists's offices, medical schools, research labs, government health-related agencies, and biomedical and pharmaceutical industries. KEY POINTS: o New paperback edition of a powerful book about gender bias in the medical establishment. o New preface by authors brings the issues up-to-date.

Laurence & Weinhouse shine a penetrating light on the medical establishment & discover pervasive neglect, rampant gender bias, & systematized discrimination in women's health care -- an issue that has galvanized women in the nineties. They investigate the shocking anti-woman bias at medical schools & research facilities, & takes to task physicians' offices, where female patients are treated differently from their male counterparts. They eloquently demonstrate that sexist medicine is bad science -- & the demand for nonsexist treatment is nothing less than the demand for equitable treatment in research, education, & patient care.
