Publisher's Synopsis
Clear, concise and immensely practical, this book is written for those who may be involved in obstetric emergencies at all levels of care -- obstetricians, trainees, family practitioners, midwives, and nurses. The book will be especially useful to those who infrequently encounter such problems and whose facilities and assistance may be limited but it is comprehensive enough to be valuable to those with abundant experience and resources. The advice drawn from the author's extensive experience is authoritative and unequivocal. The text is divided into twenty-eight brief, well-focused chapters. The book is illustrated and fully indexed with selected references to further reading.
