This book was released on 2015-07-22 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smellie's Treatise on the Theory and Practice of Midwifery, Vol. 2 The following Collections are intended to confirm and illustrate the method of practice recommended in my former Treatise, or first volume upon Midwifery; and are placed in the same order observed in that performance, to which they have references, as well as to a series of tables, to the number of thirty-nine, now ready for publication, which I have prepared, with a view to demonstrate and explain what otherwise might not be so well understood. These will, in some measure, supply the want of proper references in the former impressions of the first volume; though that defect is remedied in this edition. Between the years 1722 and 1739, while I practised in the country, I took notes of all the remarkable cases that occurred in midwifery; but in London, since the year 1740 to the present time, I have been more careful and minute in forming a Collection, with a view to make it public. From a great number of instances, I have selected only the most material, and such as were best adapted to the nature of my plan; for I was unwilling to tire the reader with a succession of parallel histories that contain nothing essentially different from one another. In order to render the performance still more complete, I have taken from authors of the best authority a few extraordinary cases which seldom occur, as well as borrowed some medical transactions from the most approved modern physicians.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smellie's Treatise on the Theory and Practice of Midwifery, Vol. 3: Edited, With Annotations; (With Index) IT may be necessary to inform the public that this volume of 'preternatural Cases in Midwifery' completes the plan of Dr. Smellie's work, and fulfils the promise which he made in the preface prefixed to the preceding volume. He there Observes The other part (meaning that which is now presented) was almost completed; and though he should not live to see it in print, would certainly appear to fulfil his scheme and promise to the public. This hint was more prophetical than his friends could have wished. Some years ago he retired from business in London to his native country, where he employed his leisure hours in methodising and revising his papers, and in finishing his Collection of Cases for this publication. The manuscript was transmitted to the person who prepared the two former volumes for the press, and even delivered to the printer, when the Doctor died advanced in years at his own house near Lanark, in North Britain.

Download or read book Death before Birth written by Robert Woods and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2009-08-27 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considering its importance, the history of fetal health and mortality remains a neglected area. Medical historians have tended to focus on maternal mortality and professional conflicts between midwives rather than on the unborn, while among the social scientists demographers and epidemiologists have until recently devoted most of their attention to infants and children. Death before Birth redresses this imbalance, redirecting attention to the fetus. A study of fetal health from the seventeenth century to the present day, it is the first book to offer an historical perspective on the subject and to combine both medical history and epidemiological and demographic research, using long-term and comparative perspectives, including a strong international comparative element, across both Europe and North America. The book not only provides an account of how fetal health and the risks facing the unborn (miscarriages, abortions, stillbirths etc) have changed, it also offers an interpretation of the causes, one that focuses on the role of obstetrics and the epidemiology of maternal infections. Along the way, it pays detailed attention to a host of related themes, such as varying cultural practices in the recognition of stillbirths; the age pattern of mortality risk between conception and live birth; comparative trends in late-fetal mortality and their causes; fetal mortality and obstetric care during the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries; and the contrasting approaches of the pathologists and 'social epidemiologists' to the causes of fetal death. The book concludes with a study of the 'fetus as patient', focusing on issues surrounding the legalization of abortion in many Western countries and the public health challenges of persistently high mortality in less developed countries.
Download or read book Midwifery Obstetrics and the Rise of Gynaecology written by Helen King and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gynaeciorum libri, the 'Books on [the diseases of] women,' a compendium of ancient and contemporary texts on gynaecology, is the inspiration for this intensive exploration of the origins of a subfield of medicine. This collection was first published in 1566, with a second edition in 1586/8 and a third, running to 1097 folio pages, in 1597. While examining the origins of the compendium, Helen King here concentrates on its reception, looking at a range of different uses of the book in the history of medicine from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century. Looking at the competition and collaboration among different groups of men involved in childbirth, and between men and women, she demonstrates that arguments about history were as important as arguments about the merits of different designs of forceps. She focuses on the eighteenth century, when the 'man-midwife' William Smellie found his competence to practise challenged on the grounds of his allegedly inadequate grasp of the history of medicine. In his lectures, Smellie remade the 'father of medicine', Hippocrates, as the 'father of midwifery'. The close study of these texts results in a fresh perspective on Thomas Laqueur's model of the defeat of the one-sex body in the eighteenth century, and on the origins of gynaecology more generally. King argues that there were three occasions in the history of western medicine on which it was claimed that women's difference from men was so extensive that they required a separate branch of medicine: the fifth century BC, and the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. By looking at all three occasions together, and by tracing the links not only between ancient Greek ideas and their Renaissance rediscovery, but also between the Renaissance compendium and its later owners, King analyzes how the claim of female 'difference' was shaped by specific social and cultural conditions. Midwifery, Obstetrics and the Rise of Gynaecology makes a genuine contribution not only to the history of medicine and its subfield of gynaecology, but also to gender and cultural studies.
