Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The London Practice of Midwifery: Including the Treatment During the Puerperal State, and the Principal Infantile Diseases; To Which Is Added Notes, Plates, and Denman's Aphorisms
The London Practice of Midwifery having now attained the honorable rank of a sixth edition, is presumptive evidence, at least, that it possesses no ordinary degree of merit. In proof that our brethren across the Atlantic entertain a favourable opinion of the work, we need only mention the fact that it is quoted as good authority by the Medico-chirurgical Review, a publication that sustains the same relation to medical science that the North American Review does to general litera ture. It is there spoken of as exhibiting the practice and opin ions of a man, eminent in the profession, lately deceased.
