Extract

The observer of the current literature of Midwifery finds nothing more characteristic of it than the number of papers on the mechanism of natural parturition. These papers indicate for the most part an enlightened zeal, for they are engaged with a most important branch of this mechanism, namely, the mode of action of the force of labour upon the fœtus and upon the passages, and the explanation thereby obtained of the changes which take place in these as natural labour advances.
