Description

Zusammenfassung First published in 1690, this work made Justine Siegemund (1636-1705) the spokesperson for the art of midwifery at a time when most obstetrical texts were written by men. Translated here into English, this work contains riveting birthing scenes, sworn testimonials by former patients, and a brief autobiography.
