From the time of earliest organized s0cieties, healing was seen as a divine intervention. Hence where female deities were revered, women played an important role in many aspects of that society, including servign as scribes and healers. As the Abrahamic religions evolved male deities gained prominence and the role of women diminished. It was not until the 19th century that women began to assert their gifts in the healing arts. The scientific revolution simply replaced male deities with humans, and that meant men. Women continued to be regarded as lacking the intellect or endurance to be effective healers. Only midwivery was permitted to women, but they were still viewed with suspicion. Early nurses were simply servants. It took Florence Nightengale to professionalize this discipline. Entry of women into the medical professions slowly gained a foothold in the 20th century. Many interesting photographs are included. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Portal to Healing Collective Feminine Wounds of the Past *by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2018* Super interesting and informative book. Recommended to any and all women (or men) who practice healing arts and aren't aware of thehistory of women as healers and the punishments incurred as a result of power mongering, fearful patriarchal cultures. We are only beginning to emerge from the Dark Ages at this time... This book serves as a portal for women as healers to heal from their collective past wounds and move into the new paradigm of health and wholeness based on love, kindness, nurturing and the readily available gifts of Mother Earth. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Much needed and riveting *by H***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2016* When I approached the principal of my school to propose the launch of a Women's Studies course, he dismissed the idea, saying that he'd do that after we launched a Men's Studies course. He was serious. The dominant demographic never notices his (sic) own advantage. He never noticed that all the courses in high school are men's studies; women are generally ignored or even written out of the history of all fields of study and advances in technology. Anyway, a book such as this would be an invaluable resource for a balanced study of human accomplishments. And we're still waiting for that. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/43034224-woman-as-healer-paperback-illustrated-march-13-1991](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/43034224-woman-as-healer-paperback-illustrated-march-13-1991) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-24*
