Syllabus of lectures on the theory and practice of midwifery: Including The Pathology or general Doctrine of acute and chronic Diseases incident to Women and Children, with their Treatment and Cure. - For the clearer Demonstration of operative Midwisery (whether simply by the Hand, or Application of Instruments) the several Methods of assisting in laborious and preternatural Labours, will not only be described according to the most approved modern Practice, but likewise distinctly shewn by an artificial Representation of each difficult Case, upon Machines of a new Construction. The whole will be illustrated by such Anatomical Preparations as are applicable to each Lecture; with various Observations, extraordinary Cases, and necessary Cautions; but particularly, by real Labours. By John Leake, M. D. Member of the Royal College of Physicians, London, and Physician to the Westminster Lying-in Hospital, At his House in Craven-Street in the Strand.
