Heeling the Boys' Club (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781439256695)

Heeling the Boys' Club by Tina Melanson is the moving, funny story of Dr. Shelby Rose, who transitions from a naive farm-bred woman to a hard-working physician, all the while fighting the male chauvinism that is rampant in her profession. While at first she accepts the occasional disrespect, she soon begins to realize there is a virtual Boys' Club in medicine and fitting in has its price. Shelby soon finds herself turning from a friendly, optimistic woman to a sarcastic, disgruntled physician. Can she find her way back to herself without sacrificing a position in the Club? Kidney specialist Tina Melanson's personal experiences give Heeling the Boys' Club a stunning authenticity that is reminiscent of Marilyn French's The Women's Room. This is a terrific book for any woman who has ever felt marginalized in her job and wondered what to do about it
