Ebook About An “engaging and . . . thought-provoking” memoir of battling public health crises in early 20th-century New York City—from the pioneering female physician and children’s health advocate who ‘caught’ Typhoid Mary (The New York Times) New York’s Lower East Side was said to be the most densely populated square mile on earth in the 1890s. Health inspectors called the neighborhood “the suicide ward.” Diarrhea epidemics raged each summer, killing thousands of children. Sweatshop babies with smallpox and typhus dozed in garment heaps destined for fashionable shops. Desperate mothers paced the streets to soothe their feverish children and white mourning cloths hung from every building. A third of the children living there died before their fifth birthday.By 1911, the child death rate had fallen sharply and The New York Times hailed the city as the healthiest on earth. In this witty and highly personal autobiography, public health crusader Dr. S. Josephine Baker explains how this transformation was achieved. By the time she retired in 1923, Baker was famous worldwide for saving the lives of 90,000 children. The programs she developed, many still in use today, have saved the lives of millions more. She fought for women’s suffrage, toured Russia in the 1930s, and captured “Typhoid” Mary Mallon, twice. She was also an astute observer of her times, and Fighting for Life is one of the most honest, compassionate memoirs of American medicine ever written.Book Fighting for Life (New York Review Books Classics) Review :
Dr. S. J. Baker was a pioneer in many ways. She was among the first generation of women receiving medical degrees. She was the first head of a New York City Health Department division (every subordinate, all men, offered a resignation rather than work for a woman). She found herself at odds with corruption up to Tammany Hall. But she persevered in her efforts to make it safer to be a baby in New York City. Her Child Hygiene programs reduced infant mortality rates by 2/3 and the number of "summer death" by about the same. She was credited with saving over 90,000 lives, but her programs have undoubtedly saved millions more. Her autobiography is not politically correct now but it is witty, informative, and inspiring. Based on the description, it sounded as if more would be written regarding “tangling down Typhoid Mary” yet there was hardly a few paragraphs. Nevertheless the Dr. Baker is fascinating and one cool lady, definitely a pioneer way before her time. I must say the first 70 or so pages were not not that exciting but then it became increasingly interesting and I couldn’t put down. The book was written in 1939 and I kept thinking how amazing it was to read firsthand about what took place during that time. I couldn’t help but think of my grandmother living in Boston during that same era and being thankful that I learned somewhat of what her life was back then since I never got to have those conversations with her.I wish we had less role models like those famous because only because they’re on a reality series and more bada$$ women like Dr. Baker who didn’t give a rats rip what others thought. She set out to change the world - and she did.
