Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In From Hysteria to Hormones, Amy Koerber examines the rhetorical activity that preceded the early twentieth-century emergence of the word hormone and the impact of this word on expert understandings of womens health.Shortly after Ernest Henry Starling coined the term hormone in 1905, hormones began to provide a chemical explanation for bodily phenomena that were previously understood in terms of wandering wombs, humors, energies, and balance. In this study, Koerber posits that the discovery of hormones was not so much a revolution as an exigency that required old ways of thinking to be twisted, reshaped, and transformed to fit more scientific turn-of-the-century expectations of medical practices. She engages with texts from a wide array of medical and social scientific subdisciplines; with material from medical archives, including patient charts, handwritten notes, and photographs from the Salpetriere Hospital, where Dr. Jean Charcot treated hundreds of hysteria patients in the late nineteenth century; and with current rhetorical theoretical approaches to the study of health and medicine. In doing so, Koerber shows that the boundary between older, nonscientific ways of understanding womens bodies and newer, scientific understandings is much murkier than we might expect.A clarifying examination of how the term hormones preserves key concepts that have framed our understanding of womens bodies from ancient times to the present, this innovative book illuminates the ways in which the words we use today to discuss female reproductive health arent nearly as scientifically accurate or socially progressive as believed. Scholars of rhetoric, gender studies, and womens health will find Koerbers work provocative and valuable. Examines the rhetorical activity that preceded the early twentieth-century emergence of the word hormone and the impact of this word on expert understandings of womens health.
