Synopsis: The book "examines the historical development of dentistry as a profession in Ontario from the late 19th century to the end of the First World War to explore the significance of gender, particularly masculinity, in the formation of professions. Adams makes the case that gender was an inportant factor in the establishment of the dental profesion. At one time considered a trade, dentistry gradually evolved and attained professional status. The early dentists structured the profession in such a way as to recruit middle-class white men ... Gender and class divisions were drawn upon to legitimate professional roles and claims to professional status; by definition, a professional was a gentleman.
