Former Plunket nurse Jenny Prince (right) has been appointed chief executive of the Royal New Zealand Plunket Society. Dr Truby King, best known as the founder of the Plunket Society (The Society for the Promotion of the Health of Women and Children), argued that women's natural functions as mothers would be impaired by the rigours of study and commercial and academic life. The history of Plunket, seen through Lynda Bryder's eyes ("'Plunket's Secret Army': The Royal New Zealand Plunket Society and the State"), reinforces Tennant's argument that voluntary agencies are creatures of their times, with the associated strengths and frailties. |
