Description

This scholarly volume from Routledge provides a deep look into the history of obstetrics during the British Enlightenment. While many historians focus on the competition between genders and the rise of male midwives, this collection offers a much broader perspective on the era. This set is a valuable resource for researchers and historians, featuring a wide array of primary source materials. It includes historical pamphlets, specialized treatises, and lectures designed for midwifery students of the period. Additionally, the text covers the development of lying-in hospitals and provides detailed catalogues of obstetrical apparatuses used by male midwives. By offering these direct historical documents, the book serves as a foundational tool for those studying the evolution of pregnancy and childbirth practices. It provides the necessary context to understand how medical tools, education, and hospital structures shaped the field of midwifery in the eighteenth century.
