O fascynującym i złożonym świecie grzybów, a także o tym, jak należy opowiadać o przyrodzie i właściwie popularyzować naukę, opowiada dr hab. Marta Wrzosek z Wydziału Biologii Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego.
This paper examines the coverage of women’s health issues, preventive care and prophylaxis in 19th-century Polish popular medical periodicals, in particular Dziennik Zdrowia dla Wszystkich Stanów [ Journal of Health for all Social Classes] (1801–1802), Przyjaciel Zdrowia [ Health’s Friend] (1861–1863), Zdrowie [ Health] (1877/78–1880), and Lekarz [ The Physician] (1903/04–1904/05). The authors of this study try to find an answer to the question whether those periodicals did succeed in giving women’s health issues the rank and status warranted by their significance.
