Product Information
In the spring of 1889, Brooklyn's premier newspaper, the Daily Eagle , printed a series of articles that detailed a history of midnight hearses and botched operations performed by a scalpel-eager female surgeon named Dr. Mary Dixon-Jones. The ensuing avalanche of public outrage gave rise to two trials--one for manslaughter and one for libel--that became a late nineteenth-century sensation. Vividly recreating both trials, Regina Morantz-Sanchez provides a marvelous historical whodunit, inviting readers to sift through the evidence and evaluate the witnesses. This intricately crafted and mesmerizing piece of history reads like a suspense novel which skillfully examines masculine and feminine ideals in the late 19th century. Jars of specimens and surgical mannequins became common spectacles in the courtroom, and the roughly 300 witnesses that testified represented a fascinating social cross-section of the city's inhabitants, from humble immigrant craftsmen and seamstresses to some of New York and Brooklyn's most prestigious citizens and physicians. Like many legal extravaganzas of our own time, the Mary Dixon-Jones trials highlighted broader social issues in America. It unmasked apprehension about not only the medical and social implications of radical gynecological surgery, but also the rapidly changing role of women in society. Indeed, the courtroom provided a perfect forum for airing public doubts concerning the reputation of one "unruly" woman doctor whose life-threatening procedures offered an alternative to the chronic, debilitating pain of 19th-century women. Clearly a extraordinary event in 1892, the cases disappeared from the historical record only a few years later. Conduct Unbecoming a Woman brilliantly reconstructs both the Dixon-Jones trials and the historic panorama that was 1890s Brooklyn.

"Regina Morantz-Sanchez breathes new life into an important episode in thehistory of gynecology. Her insightful narrative of the career and trials ofMary Dixon Jones, an ambitious female physician accused of murder and mayhem,provides important insights into the complicated politics that surroundedwomen's bodies and female professionalization in the late nineteenth centuryAmerica." --Joan Jacobs Brumberg, Stephen H. Weiss Presidential Fellow andProfessor, "A doctor, a woman, a libel case, a trial -- the stuff of novels. In thisgripping historical narrative, Morantz-Sanchez skillfully weaves these elementsinto an insightful and contextualized social history pertinent to issues ofgender and medical authority still vital to the present day. Highlyrecommended!" --Judith Walzer Leavitt, University of Wisconsin, Madison, "In a sensitive and sophisticated analysis, Morantz-Sanchez unpacks the complexities of the Dixon Jones story in such a way that the protagonist's guilt or innocence is almost unimportant....If this trial never achieved the place in American memory won by that other Brooklyn spectacle, the Beecher-Tilton trial, it has happily, been restored to us with its manifold meanings by her cogent analysis."--Journal of the History of Medicine, "Morantz-Sanchez's thoughtfully written, thoroughly documented book dealswith much more than the bare bones of Dixon Jones' story....Excellent."--Booklist, "Morantz-Sanchez's thoughtfully written, thoroughly documented book deals with much more than the bare bones of Dixon Jones' story.... Excellent."--Booklist "Riveting and insightful, Regina Morantz-Sanchez...offers a spotlight on a critical series of turning points in public attitudes toward American Medicine and gender roles.

Jones, Distinguished University Professor, University of Houston, "[This] book lifts the underskirts of American medicine to reveal many ofits long-term hidden problems, including medical malpractice, informed consent,hospital mortality rates, medical judgment, care of the poor, and stretching theboundaries of acceptable medical practice to include experimental procedures.These problems still appear unsolvable and continue to plague medical practicetoday."--JAMA, "Conduct Unbecoming a Woman makes compelling reading. Dixon Jones was a 'difficult woman' because she dared to challenge gender stereotypes and traditional ideals of medical professionals. Morantz-Sanchez uses the story of Dixon Jones as a window on a wider world in which professionalism,local boosterism, medical specialization, and gender politics shaped events of drama and spectacle."--Medical History, "[This] book lifts the underskirts of American medicine to reveal many of its long-term hidden problems, including medical malpractice, informed consent, hospital mortality rates, medical judgment, care of the poor, and stretching the boundaries of acceptable medical practice to includeexperimental procedures.
