This book is an attempt to assess the contribution of a nineteenth century Bengali woman who had many 'firsts' to her credit. She had excelled in her medical practice and tride to reach out to those helpless women at a time when very little attention was paid to their health. At the time the realm of medicine and health was exclusively male dominated. Her achievements in the practice of medicine are phenomenal considering the constant impediments she had to face from the colonial government.
