More DescriptionThe sixth edition of this classic work continues the tradition established by Dewhurst of a genuine postgraduate textbook (a rare thing today) which truly integrates the disciplines of obstetrics and gynaecology. Despite the fact that the Royal College combines the two disciplines and trainees learn them together, this is still the only textbook which properly integrates the two. The competing literature treats them separately in two volumes (involving the trainee in twice the expense). In this new Edition, Mr Keith Edmonds has taken over in the role of Editor and has introduced a completely new look to the book by the addition of colour illustrations and two-colour text for the first time. There are also five new chapters: Sexual Function and Dysfunction; Dysfunctional Ulterine Bleeding; Intersexuality; Immunological Disorders in Pregnancy; and Special Circumstances Affecting Labour. His thorough reworking of all chapters and invitations of many new contributors from the rising generation will perpetutate its excellent tradition into the next century.
