Synopsis: (Translated from wiki)The “golden women's book” The woman as a family doctor with the subtitle A medical reference book for women appeared for the first time in 1901 and in 1913 reached a circulation of millions. The universal reference work gave comprehensive advice on all everyday questions of female life: body, mind, lifestyle, nutrition, health, hygiene, marriage, children and morals. Taboo subjects such as masturbation,homosexuality, adultery, contraception, frigidity and infertility were covered. Not always and everything in today's sense, but surprisingly modern and open-minded for the time, in the sense of the life reform propagated at the turn of the century before last.
