A Practical Treatise On Midwifery Containing The Result Of Sixteen Thousand Six Hundred And Fifty Four Births Occurring In The Dublin Lying In Hospital During A Period Of Seven Years Commencing November 1826 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Midwifery, Containing the Result of Sixteen Thousand Six Hundred and Fifty-Four Births, Occurring in the Dublin Lying-in Hospital, During a Period of Seven Years, Commencing November 1826 My object in the publication of the present volume is to give a minute and faithful detail of what actually passed under my observation in the Hospital, during the seven years it was intrusted to my care, so as to enable the reader to form his own conclusions and thus avoid the error into which so many have been drawn, of remaining satisfied with assertions made by men no wiser than themselves, and whose opinions often rest on the same foundation. An extensive record of this nature will, I should hope, materially assist the experienced Physician in obscure investigations; and with the view of rendering the facts detailed more useful to the junior, I have subjoined such practical observations as experience suggested.
