This book introduces US readers to a key Dutch feminist and progressive activist. The first Dutch woman to earn a medical degree, she pioneered health care reforms for prostitutes and saleswomen and access to birth control. A leader in the international women's suffrage and peace movements, she joined Carrie Chapman Catt on a year-long round the world lecture tour. Jacobs recounts her remarkable experiences in a voice that is often witty, sometimes angry, and always indomitable.
