Pursuing Equity in Medicine by Catherine DeAngelis PDF Summary

Book Description: Catherine DeAngelis, MD, MPH, has over forty years of experience in the medical field, and her career has been full of adventure, compassion, and courage. DeAngelis was born to a family of Italian immigrants in rural northeastern Pennsylvania. Every year she would ask Santa Claus for a doctor's kit. Every year she would receive a nurse's kit. It was only when her father turned one such gift into a doctor's kit that DeAngelis was truly happy. With her father's faith in her, DeAngelis had the confidence to apply to medical school. The road ahead would not be easy-it would be fraught with uncertainty, prejudice, and even Chechen hostage takers! Along the way, DeAngelis gained more and more confidence in her ability as a doctor but remained frustrated by the lack of opportunities available to women in her field. In Pursuing Equity in Medicine: One Woman's Journey, she uses examples from her own life to passionately argue for equal treatment for all men and women. This memoir is a must-read for any woman in the medical profession determined to break the glass ceiling-and any man who wants to understand what his female colleagues must endure.
