A Translation of 'Midwifery for Nurses'

The Christian Literature Society for India liave undertaken the translation into the vernacular of the well-known book of Russell Andrews' ' Midwifery for Nurses'. Up-to-date textbooks in the vernaculars for pupil-midwives are not available, and the society, in endeavouring to place this book before the nurses, has taken pains to see that the translation has been done in an easy style which permits of its being easily understood. The book is got up neatly, with a few diagrams here and there. It is up to date and should prove of great value to midwives under training. The translator has done well in incorporating some of the technical words in the English language without a laborious attempt at translating them. This makes it easier for pupils to follow the class lessons and the day-to-day practice. The book deserves a place in all teaching institutions where midwifery is taught in Telugu.
