Sample Book Insights:
#1 The history of childbirth is a history of pain and suffering. The more advanced a society is, the more pain is accepted as a symptom of childbirth.
#2 The history of obstetrics is very young. In the middle of the nineteenth century, there was no anesthesia, and there was no knowledge of asepsis. It was difficult for people to visualize the state of affairs when limbs were amputated, abdomens were opened, and caesarean sections were performed without any anaesthesia.
#3 The theory has not been found wanting, and no criticism has been justified by experience. Vast numbers of women have found comfort and safety in this approach to childbirth. The sordid melancholy of prospective motherhood has been replaced by fearless and impatient longing for the moment of life’s most satisfying achievement.
