| Summary |
"Herself: Talks with Women Concerning Themselves" by E. B. Lowry is a comprehensive guide written in the early 20th century. The book primarily addresses women's health, anatomy, and the importance of understanding their own bodies, while emphasizing topics such as menstruation, childbirth, and sexual hygiene. The author aims to empower women by providing them with essential knowledge about their physiological functions, health care, and personal well-being. At the start of the book, the author discusses the pervasive ignorance surrounding women's reproductive health due to inadequate education and lack of proper resources. In the preface, Lowry highlights the necessity for women to be informed about their anatomy, the menstrual cycle, and various health concerns, all presented in an accessible manner. She lays the groundwork for the subsequent chapters, which promise to delve deeply into the anatomy and physiology of female organs, reproductive health issues, and practical advice for young women to lead healthy lives.
