This historical gem was written sometime between 1923 & 1930. It’s like reading the minds of the entire medical profession about fifty interesting & controversial topics and esp. reveals their attitudes about midwives.
It’s shocking, edifying — anything but boring, 2 thumbs up, required reading for all students of midwifery
