Antenatal and Postnatal Care

چکیده
Antenatal and Postnatal Care is a book that can be recommended with confidence to students and doctors who undertake the care, supervision and treatment of expectant mothers. Conscientious application of the practical instruction contained in the book will do much to rescue antenatal care from the disrepute into which it has fallen by being inadequately and perfunctorily practised. At the same time the book indicates gaps in our knowledge, and will, if it is studied and its lessons applied, increase the interest of the antenatal clinic by stimulating investigation and experimental treatment.
