Summary of the Book
A sensitive look at the inner world of India’s first woman doctor, the pain and suffering she endured, and the determination that drove her remarkable and inspiring journey!
In 1883, eighteen year old Anandi Joshee sailed alone from Calcutta to New York. Having witnessed the suffering of women due to lack of medical care, she wanted to become a doctor. Through her achievement, she also hoped to help create a culture that regarded women as deserving and capable of equality with men.
Based on original letters, university archives and newspaper accounts, Radical Spirits draws a textured portrait of the relationships that Indian, British and American individuals forged by bridging cultural and class boundaries.
