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. More
attention has been given to the diseases of the genital organs
associated with or following childbirth. Many of the old illustrations
have been replaced by better ones, and there have been added a number
entirely new. The work treats the subject from a clinical standpoint.

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 illustration 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."
