- Synopsis
- Boulis and Jacobs (sociology, U. of Pennsylvania) analyze from a sociological perspective the increase over recent decades of women who study and practice medicine in the US. They discuss specific issues that arise when female physicians meet the American health care system. Topics covered include: disparities of specialty and practice ownership, female physicians and family life, dual-physician marriages, specialty choice among female doctors, and whether or not they are changing the way medicine is practiced in the US, among others.
