EDGAR'S OBSTETRICS excels all other works on the 

 subject in completeness, in uniformity and consistency 

 in arrangement, thoroughness in handling details, and 

 in the number and usefulness of its illustrations. 



The author's fifteen years' experience in hospital and 



private practice and as a teacher, his cosmopolitan knowledge 



of literature and methods, and an excellent judgment based 



jpon all of these fit him especially to prepare what must be 



a standard work for both students and physicians. 



The author's effort has been to cover his subject thor- 

 oughly; to arrange his material systematically; to avoid un- 

 necessary words, yet to be plain and distinct in all explanations ; 

 to present each section witn a careful outline of the subject 

 dealt with therein ; to be uniform and consistent in amount of 

 space devoted to subjects ; to consider relative values and 

 proportion in both text and illustrations ; to illustrate the book 

 in the best manner; to create a book which should not only 

 equal but would surpass all others. Nothing of importance 

 remains unsaid.
