Sample Book Insights:
#1 Claire Weekes, in 1928, was the first woman to be awarded a Doctor of Science degree at the University of Sydney. She was aiming for a Rockefeller Fellowship to study in England after completing her PhD. She lost her footing and found herself in freefall.
#2 Weekes was one of the lucky ones, for the sanatorium doors opened after six months, and she was released. She was terrified and overwhelmed, and felt that she had a serious heart problem. She did not immediately return to university, but instead recuited with a friend in the country who was married to a doctor.
#3 Weekes' experience with fear led her to become a doctor who specialized in anxiety disorders. She never forgot the doctor who had misdiagnosed her with tuberculosis, a devastating medical error given the consequences.
