#Medical Record, New York#

"Its merits can be appreciated only by a careful perusal.... Nearly one hundred pages are devoted to technic, this chapter being in some respects superior to the descriptions in many text-books."

#Boston Medical and Surgical Journal#

"The author has given special attention to diagnosis and treatment throughout the book, and has produced a practical treatise which should be of the greatest value to the student, the general practitioner, and the specialist."

#Medical News, New York#

"Office treatment is given a due amount of consideration, so that the work will be as useful to the non-operator as to the specialist."

RECENTLY ISSUED

Immediately on its publication this work took its place as the leading text-book on the subject. Both in this country and abroad it is recognized as the most satisfactorily written and clearly illustrated work on obstetrics in the language. The illustrations form one of the features of the book. They are numerous and the most of them are original. In this edition the book has been thoroughly revised. More attention has been given to the diseases of the genital organs associated with or following childbirth. Many of the old illustrations have been replaced by better ones, and there have been added a number entirely new. The work treats the subject from a clinical standpoint.

#British Medical Journal#

"The popularity of American text-books in this country is one of the features of recent years. The popularity is probably chiefly due to the great superiority of their illustration over those of the English text-books. The illustrations in Dr. Hirst's volume are far more numerous and far better executed, and therefore more instructive, than those commonly found in the works of writers on obstetrics in our own country."

#Bulletin of Johns Hopkins Hospital#

"The work is an admirable one in every sense of the word, concisely but comprehensively written."

#The Medical Record, New York#

"The illustrations are numerous and are works of art, many of them appearing for the first time. The author's style, though condensed, is singularly clear, so that it is never necessary to re-read a sentence in order to grasp the meaning. As a true model of what a modern text-book on obstetrics should be, we feel justified in affirming that Dr. Hirst's book is without a rival."
