INCLUDING RELATED GYNECOLOGIC OPERATIONS 



Immediately on its publication this work took its place as the leading text-book 

 on the subject. Both in this country and in England it is recognized as the most 

 satisfactorily written and clearly illustrated work on obstetrics in the language. 

 The illustrations form one of the features of the book. They are numerous and 

 the most of them are original. In this edition the book has been thoroughly revised. 

 Recognizing the inseparable relation between obstetrics and certain gynecologic 

 conditions, the author has included all the gynecologic operations for complica- 

 tions and consequences of childbirth, together with a brief account of the diagnosis 

 and treatment of all the pathologic phenomena peculiar to women. 



OPINIONS OF THE MEDICAL PRESS 



British Medical Journal 



" The popularity of American text-books in this country is one of the features of recent 

 years. The popularity is probably chiefly due to the great superiority of their illustrations 

 over those of the English text-books. The illustrations in Dr. Hirst's volume are far more 

 numerous and far better executed, and therefore more instructive, than those commonly 

 found in the works of writers on obstetrics in our own country." 



Bulletin of Johns Hopkins Hospital 



"The work is an admirable one in every sense of the word, concisely but comprehensively 

 written." 



The Medical Record, New York 



"The illustrations are numerous and are works of art, many of them appearing for the first 

 time. The author's style, though condensed, is singularly clear, so that it is never necessary 

 to re-read a sentence in order to grasp the meaning. As a true model of what a modern text- 

 book on obstetrics should be, we feel justified in affirming that Dr. Hirst's book is without a 

 rival."
