Part II then examines Andersen’s role in defining the new disease “cystic fibrosis of the pancreas” and her career of active engagement in various clinical pursuits and research, both in pathology and pediatrics. Chapters in this section also discuss the numerous attempts made by others to minimize Andersen’s work through gender bias and the Matilda Effect. The book concludes by reviewing the foundations laid for CF, Andersen’s legacy, and her terminal illness. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeaturing an engaging narrative style, \u003ci\u003eDorothy Hansine Andersen \u003c\/i\u003eis a historically relevant, invaluable text for anyone interested in the life of Dorothy Anderson and the nascence of cystic fibrosis diagnoses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: Life before Babies Hospital\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1: A beginning\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cb\u003eChapter 2: Orphaned \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 3: College and medical school\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 4: False start \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 5: A reboot \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II: Babies Hospital during the McIntosh Era\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 6: Historical perspectives\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 7: Synergy \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 8: Andy’s abandoned farm\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 9: Scoring the first goal\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 10: CF firsts\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChapter 11: \u003cb\u003e“To Dr. Andersen who has pulled me through many a \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003etough year”\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 12: McIntosh, pediatric pathology, and Columbia University\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 13: CF sweat and the Matilda Effect \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 14: Glycogen storage diseases\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 15: Celiac disease\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 16: Randomized, controlled trials\u003cbr\u003e Chapter 17: Babies Hospital siblings \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 18: A last decade of CF research\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 19: Pediatric heart diseases\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e          Part III: Beyond Babies Hospital and the McIntosh Era\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 20: Time to enjoy the view \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 21: A foundation and a club for CF\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 22: The end of an era\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 23: Cancer \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e          Afterword\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51742857658711,"sku":"9783030874834","price":33.24,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783030874834.jpg?v=1758387064","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/dorothy-hansine-andersen-the-life-and-times-of-the-pioneering-physician-scientist-who-identified-cystic-fibrosis-9783030874834","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
