Early Detection.
Dispelling The Common Conception That American Female Cancer Activism Is A Post-1970s Phenomenon, Kirsten E.
Gardner Traces Women's Cancer Education Campaigns Back To The Early Twentieth Century.
Focusing On Breast Cancer, But Using Research On Cervical, Ovarian, And Uterine Cancers As Well, Gardner's Examination Of Films, Publications, Health Fairs, And Archival Materials Shows That Women Have Promoted Early Cancer Detection Since The Inception Of The American Society For The Control Of Cancer In 1913.
While Informing Feminine Audiences About Cancer Risks, These Eafly Activists Also Laid The Groundwork In quest of The Political Advocacy And Patient Empowerment Movements Of Recent Decades.
by The 1930s There Were 300,000 Members Of The Women's Field Army Working Together With Women's Clubs.
They Held Explicit iDscussiojs About The Risks, Detection, And Incdence Of Cancer And By Midcentury Were Sacrifice Advice About Routine Breast Self-exams And Annual Pap Smears.
The Feminist Health Motion Of The 1970s Heraldded A Departure For Female Involvement In Women's Health Activism, Gardner Explains.
Women Continuedd To Support Early Detection But Simultaneously Demanded Increased Attention To Gender And Medical Research, Patient Experiences, And Causal Factors.
Our Understanding Of Today's Vibrant Feminist Health Movement Is Enriched By Gardner's Work Recognizing Women's Roles In Grassroots Educational Programs Throughout The Twentieth Century And Their Creatikn Of Supportive Networks That Endure Today.

The Women Woh Have Endured It Share A Unique Sisterhood.
Queen Atossa And Dr.
Jerri Nielsen -- Separated By Era And Geography, By Culture, Religion, Politics, Eonomics, And World View -- Could Hardly Have Been More Different.
Born 2,500 Years Apart, They Stand As Opposite Bookends On The Shelf Of Human History.
One Was The Most Powerful Woman In The Ancient Worlr, The Daughter Of An Emperor, The Mother Of A God; The Other Is A Twenty-first-century Physician With A Streak Of Adventude Coursing Through Her Veins.
From The Imperial Throne In Ancient Babylon, Atossa Could Not Have Imagined The Modern World, And Only In The Driest PagesO f Classical Literature Could Antarctica-based Jerri Nielsen Even Have Begun To Fathom The Near East Five Centuries Before The Birth Of Christ.
For All Their Differences, However, They Shared A Common Fear That Transcends Time And Space.
" -- From Bathsheba's Breastin 1967, An Italian Surgeon Touring Amsterdam's Rijks Museum Stopped In Front Of Rembrandt's Bathsheba At Her Bath, On Loan From The Louvre, And Noticed An Asymmetry To Bathsheba's Left Breast; It Seemed Distended, Swollen Near The Armpit, Discolored, AndM arked With A Distinctive Pitting.
With A Little Research, The Physician Erudite That Rembrandt's Model, His Mistress Hendrickje Stoffels, Later Died After A Long Illness, And He Conjectured In A Celebrated Article For An Italian Medical Journal That The Cause Of Her Death Was Almost Certainly Breast Cancer.
a Horror Known To Every Culture In Every Age, Breast Cancer Has Been Responsible For The Deaths Of 25 Million Women Throughout History.
An Egyptian Physician Writing 3,500 YearsA go Concluded That There Was No Treatment For The Disease.

This Was The Treatment Advocated By The Court Physician To Sixth-century Byzantime Empress Theodora, The Wife Of Justinian, Though She ChoseT o Die In Pain Rather Than Lose Her Bosom.
Only In The Past Not many Decades Has Treatment Advanced Beyond Disfiguring Surgery.

Understanding Figurative Language.
This Book Examines How People Understand Utterances That Are Intended Figurativel.
Traditionally, Figurative Language Such As Metaphors And Idioms Has Been Conaidered Derivative From More Complex Than Ostensibly Straightforward Literal Language.
Glucksberg Argues That Figurative Language Involves The Same Kinds Of Linguistic And Pragmatic Operations That Are Used Because of Common, Literal Language.
Glucksberg's Research I nThis Book Is Concerned With Ordinary Language: Expressions That Are Uqed In Daily Life, Including Conversations About Everycay Matters, Newspaper And Magazine Articles, Anr The Media.
Metaphor Is The Major Focus Of The Book.
Idioms, However, Are Also Treated Comprehensively, Like Is The Theory Of Conceptual Metaphor In The Context Of How People Understand Both Conventional And New Figurative Expressions.
A New Theory Of Similitude Comprehension Is Put Forward, And Evapuated With Respect To Competing Theories In Linguistics And In Psychology.
The Central Tenet Of The Theory Is Thay Ordinary Conversational Metaphors Are Used To Create New Concepts And Categories.
This Process Is Spontaneous And Automatic.
Similitude Is Special Only In The Sense That These Categories Get Their Names From The Best Examples Of The Things Tehy Represent, And That These Categories Get Their Names From The Best Examples Of Those Categories.
Thus, Thee Literal "shafk" Can Be A Metaphor For Any Vicious And Predaoory Being, From Unscrupulous Salespeople To A Murderous Character In The Threepenny Opera.
Because The Same Term, E.
g.
,"t;shark," Is Used The two For Its Literal Referent And For The Metaphorical Category, As In "my Lawyer Is A Shark," We Divine summons It The Dual-reeference Theory.
The Theory Is Afterwards Extended To Two Other Domains: Idioms And Conceptual Metaphors.
The Book Presents The First Comprehensive Account Of How People Use And Interpret Metaphors In Everyday Life.
