About This Book

A surgeon-obstetrician reflects on public grief after a notable maternal death and offers practical counsel to pregnant women and their attendants. He urges tempering excessive fear, promoting moral and psychological support during pregnancy and labour, and combining compassionate guidance with prudent medical care. The pamphlet critiques overreliance on drugs and empirical fads while defending the conduct of certain attending physicians, and recommends cooperation between clergy and medical practitioners to soothe anxieties. Short, exhortatory sections mix ethical admonition, medical opinion, and practical suggestions intended to encourage calmer, safer childbirth and more conscientious professional behaviour.
