DAVIS’ OBSTETRIC NURSING

In this work every phase of obstetric and gynecologic nursing is considered. You get really two books in one, the first half being given over entirely to obstetric nursing in all its complications, and the second to gynecologic nursing, and the special training it demands. You are told how to manage a case from pregnancy right on to the care of the baby. You are told just how to meet every emergency. There is an entire section on obstetric surgery. The Fifth Edition has been thoroughly revised.

HARDING’S HIGHER ASPECT OF NURSING

Miss Harding’s book is a study of character building, founded on personal experience. It will be a help not only to the student nurse, but also to those in active practice in hospitals or private homes. She tells you how to become a “real” nurse, emphasizes the necessity for striving for higher ideals, telling you many things that will make for this end. She impresses upon you the responsibilities of nursing service, shows you how to anticipate difficulties and how to avoid or overcome them.
