Le Centre mère-enfant de Québec (CME) a été inauguré le 18 mai 2004. Regroupant, des soins pédiatriques spécialisés et surspécialisés, il permet non seulement de soigner les enfants, mais aussi d’accompagner les mamans et d’assister les nouveau-nés prématurés. Pourtant, sans l’implication de nombreux intervenants, il n’aurait peut-être jamais vu le jour, du moins, pas sous sa forme actuelle. Ce livre vous permet de parcourir plus de 110 ans d’histoire, de la première tentative de mise sur pied d’un hôpital pour enfants à Québec jusqu’à l’ouverture officielle du CME. Une histoire remplie d’embûches et marquée par la persévérance de ceux qui n’ont jamais cessé de croire en ce projet. Découvrez ces hommes et ces femmes qui se sont investis corps et âme pour que les enfants et les mères de l’est du Québec bénéficient d’un pôle de soins de santé parfaitement adapté à leurs besoins.

Volume 8: Florence Nightingale on Women, Medicine, Midwifery and Prostitution makes available a great range of Florence Nightingale's work on women: her pioneering study of maternal mortality in childbirth ('Introductory Notes on Lying-in Institutions'), her opposition to the regulation of prostitution through the Contagious Diseases Acts (attempts to stop the legislation and otherwise to facilitate the voluntary treatment of syphilitic prostitutes), her views on gender roles, marriage and measures for income security for women and excerpts from her draft (abandoned) novel. There is correspondence with women friends and colleagues from childhood to old age, on a vast range of subjects. Correspondents include old family friends, royal and notable personages, nuns and colleagues in various causes. Most of this material has not been published before and some letters wil be new even to Nightingale scholars. Altogether a very different view of Nightingale emerges from what normally appears in biographies and other secondary sources. This material will enable a new assessment of her feminism, her relations with women and her contribution to improving the status of women of her time.
