Recs if you like Doing Harm: The Truth About How Bad Medicine and Lazy Science Leave Women Dismissed, Misdiagnosed, and Sick...

Because apparently women’s bodies are still elective in Science 101! Non-Fiction all about women's (all variations) health and the lack of research behind it.

A harrowing examination of the times when science abandoned ethics in the name of progress. These books document the exploitation of vulnerable bodies, exposing the systemic racism, sexism, ableism, and unchecked power that have historically hidden behind the white coat. These are the true stories of the "evil scientists" who operated not in gothic castles, but in government and university settings getting paid to make the rich richer.

A variety of books on female health, including educational books on the menstrual cycle, fertility, sex, pregnancy, and menopause. Where some books go deeper into endometriosis, PCOS and/or adenomyosis. As well as books covering the misogyny and discrimination within women’s healthcare currently and throughout history. The righteous feministic anger we feel towards the mistreatment, lack of research, and utter disrespect we face as women in medicine. Also cookbooks for those interested.

these are books you might find on Doctor House’s bookshelf or that have a main character like our own favorite misanthrope Dr. Gregory House 🩺 list features fiction and nonfiction, including a book written by the man of the hour, Hugh Laurie

also, how am I supposed to take House seriously when his first name is Greg 😭

as always, please drop any suggestions in the comments!!

the history of how drugs were made to save lives… and how evil people ruined them

critique and suggestions are welcome :)

These books try to get to the root of what pain is and where it comes from and how humans have tried to treat it. From chronic illness, disability to medication. Nonfiction regarding health, women's health, mental health, painkillers, opium, the body and autoimmune diseases. This list is NOT about finding healing (since that is a very individual journey) but how to be seen and understood and how to find the words to describe pain and sickness.

A collection concerning medical history, development, education, instances of corruption, etc. Topics of epidemiology and pharmaceuticals included.

A collection of all the books that have caught my feminist attention.

Non-fiction books about health and how our body works, from anatomy to mental health, from healing to studying medicine. 😷 [Note: Some of these books might be controversial or resonate with some more than with others. Pick and choose what works for YOU. :)] Recommendations welcome

This selection of books examines the field of medicine, exposing its history of exploitation, bias, and failure, often reinforcing social inequalities.

"I want to live in a World where people who learn about harm to others care more about ending it than proving they aren't causing it." - feminist next door

A list of nonfiction books to learn more about female bodies, health, sexuality and needs in a world mostly designed by men for men.

It's towards the end of disability pride month, so I thought I would recommend some of the nonfiction books that I've either used for my studies or would handsell as a bookseller. If you have any other suggestions, let me know!

mostly contemporaries, hopefuly cover range variety of fields thru feminism lens

Books that discuss the racial and sex-based bigotry rampant in the American healthcare system
