 THE PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF OBSTETRIC MEDICINE AND 



SURGERY, in reference to the Process of Parturition. Sixth American, from the last London 

 edition. Illustrated with one hundred and forty-eight Figures, on fifty-five Lithographic Plates. 

 In one large and handsomely printed volume, imperial octavo, with 520 pages. 



In this edition, the plates have all been redrawn, and the text carefully read and corrected. It 

 is therefore presented as in every way worthy the favor with which it has so long been received. 



From Prof. Hodge, of the University of Pa. 



To the American public, it is most valuable, from its intrinsic undoubted excellence, and as being 

 Uie best authorized exponent of British Midwifery. Its circulation will, I trust, be extensive throughout 

 our country. 



We recommend the student who desires to mas- 

 ter this difficult subject with the least possible 

 trouble, to possess himself at once of a copy of this 

 work. American Journal of the Med. Sciences. 



It stands at the head of the long list of excellent 

 obstetric works published in the last few years in 

 Great Britain, Ireland, and the Continent of Eu- 



rope. We consider this book indispensable to the 



When the whole profession is thus unanimous 

 in placing such a work in the very first rank as 

 regards the extent and correctness of all the details 

 of the theory and practice of so important a brancli

 the most useful of all -works of the kind, we 



think it but an act of justice to urge its claims

The repeated demands for this work, which has now for some time been out of print, have in- 

 duced the publishers to prepare another edition. The reputation which it has acquired for the 

 clearness of its views, especially as regards the physiological portion of obstetrical science, will 

 secure for it the confidence of the profession. A copy of the first edition was placed in the hands 

 of the late Professor Dewees, a few weeks before his death, and obtained from him the expression 

 of his most favorable opinion.
