The accomplisht midwife, treating of the diseases of women with child, and in childbed. As also, the best directions how to help them in natural and unnatural labours. With fit remedies for the several indispositions of new-born babes. Illustrated with divers fair figures, newly and very correctly engraven in copper. A work much more perfect than any yet extant in English: being very necessary for all teeming-women, as also for all physicians, chirurgeans and midwives that practise this art. Written in French by Francis Mauriceau. Translated, and enlarged with some marginal-notes, by Hugh Chamberlen, M.D. (and physician in ordinary to his Majesty) dwelling in Prujeans-Court in the Old-Baily.
