Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This groundbreaking book covers the development of obstetrics from its murky origins in superstition to the scientific discipline it is today. The author explores the insights of Hippocrates, Celsus, Soranus, Galen, and other medical luminaries of the time while demonstrating how advancements were often accompanied by superstition, ignorance, and setbacks. The book explains the significant contributions made by 18th-century physician William Smellie, known for pioneering the use of forceps, and the author reveals how Smellie's work paved the way for modern obstetrics and the dramatic decline in maternal and infant mortality rates.
