... well-researched reclamation of neglected yet invaluable history ... Brown, as remarkable as the pioneers she profiles, ends on a high note, vowing to become a 'changemaker.'
At its best, this deeply researched, profoundly felt book effectively weaves personal and historical memory into a well-argued critique of American medical education. At times, the prose is clumsy, but overall, this is a promising debut from a young author.
