Book Description

Excerpt from Anatomical Atlas of Obstetrics: With Special Reference to Diagnosis and Treatment In the original, Dr. Schaeffer's Atlases were most successful, and we see no reason why they should not be equally popular in the English language. Volume I. many of us will remember as appearing in a much smaller book in the early nineties; but this has now been much enlarged and brought up to date, with 111 pages of text and over 150 illustrations. Volume II. contains 314 pages and 160 valuable illustrations. Here we are indebted to the author for a book which, although he terms it an "Anatomical Atlas of Obstetric Diagnosis and Treatment," still, by reason of its profusion of illustrations and diagrams, is in the main a text-book of great didactic value. The present volume treats particularly of the obstetric operations, and will be found of special value for the student as a book of reference to be used in conjunction with the larger treatises on obstetrics. As in Volume I., no alterations or additions have been made in the text, with the exception that the English equivalents have been added to all French weights and measures.
