From the supplier: Elizabeth Stuart Phelps' Victorian novel, 'Doctor Zay,' aimed at modifying contemporary attitudes toward women professionals by reassuring readers about the professional ethics of the heroine. Zay is portrayed as a consummate professional with a feminine purity that allows the erotic elements of the story to unfold without undermining her professional ethics. Her patient/lover's decision to support Dr Zay in her career is an important message of this didactic novel. Phelps establishes at length the womanliness and gentility of her heroine and highlights her high morals by showing her as an anti-abortionist.
