About the Book

Hace muchos años, en un momento en que a las mujeres no se les permitía estudiar, y menos trabajar en lo que deseaban, un médico fue denunciado injustamente por seducir a sus pacientes. A punto de ser declarado culpable, el muchacho de pelo raro se arrancó la barba y el bigote que cubrían su cara y descubrió ante todos que era, en realidad, una mujer. Así tuvo que disfrazarse Agnódice, esta valiente joven ateniense, para lograr ejercer la medicina. Su tesón y su coraje supusieron una conquista para los derechos de la mujer. Tanto el registro de la narración como el estilo de las imágenes están adecuados a lectores a partir de 7 años. El contenido, así como las ilustraciones, se aseguran de tratar temas didácticos transversales a los ámbitos de actividad del personaje, de cara tanto a la lectura en familia como al uso en centros escolares y al refuerzo al programa educativo. Las páginas finales contienen una biografía resumida del personaje y una cronología que lo enmarca en la evolución de su disciplina, entre otros personajes destacados.

Many years ago, at a time when women were not allowed to study, let alone choose a career path, a doctor was unfairly denounced for seducing his patients. On the verge of being found guilty, the weird-haired boy tore off the beard and mustache that covered his face and revealed to everyone that he was, in fact, a woman. This is how Agnodice, this brave young Athenian woman, had to disguise herself to practice medicine. Her tenacity and her courage represented a conquest for women's rights. The content, as well as the illustrations, make sure to deal with didactic topics that cut across the character's fields of activity, both for family reading and for use in schools. The final pages contain a brief biography of the character and a chronology that frames her in the evolution of the discipline, among other notable characters.
