Overview

Beyond Strength: Silences, Resistance, and Women's Achievements in Orthopedics in Brazil explores the journeys of women who have challenged stereotypes and built careers in one of the most traditional and male-dominated medical specialties. Drawing on the personal and professional experiences of Dr. Juliana Dias Esteves, this book reveals how orthopedics in Brazil has become a space of resistance, innovation, and cultural transformation. It examines the unique challenges faced by Brazilian women surgeons-from the influence of machismo and family expectations to structural barriers within the healthcare system-and shows how these pioneers are reshaping medical practice and inspiring new generations. Combining compelling personal stories, cultural insights, and reflections on the future of medicine, this work offers a unique perspective on gender, professional identity, and social change. It is an essential resource for healthcare professionals, educators, policymakers, and readers interested in the global evolution of medicine and the power of determination to drive progress.
