The punch-drunk boxer and the battered wife
This essay uses gender as a category of historical and sociological analysis to situate two populations-boxers and victims of domestic violence-in context and explain the temporal and ontological discrepancies between them as potential brain injury patients.

Our Doctors, Ourselves
This essay examines the career of feminist journalist Barbara Seaman and her contribution to the circulation of health feminist ideas in the 1970s.

In her next book, Free and Female (1972), and in newspaper articles, interviews, and television appearances, she implored women to "liber…

RIMAs reflect the growing cooperative efforts within both t…

Much is happening in the international member care community, especially in North America and Europe. This article highlights some of the key developments that have shaped and are shaping this field. It also points out the need to develop and prioritize additional supp…
