Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rotunda Midwifery for Nurses and Midwives When teaching nurses at the Rotunda Hospital I was often impressed with the difficulty they had in under standing the manuals provided for them. This book is intended to give to nurses and midwives the knowledge they actually need as clearly and practically as possible. Thus the anatomy of organs and bones has not been divorced from their function, but the two being interdependent are described together, in order that anatomy may not be learnt in parrot fashion, but that its bearing on the processes of childbearing may be immediately appreciated. In a similar manner, as practice has a special power of appeal, the various conditions that may be met have been grouped and classified from a practical point of view, so that the main duties of a midwife may be remembered with the help of a few simple rules. Technical language has been avoided as far as possible, but when its use is necessary, it has been fully explained in the text and the derivation of the words has been given. It is hoped that in this way the subject of midwifery may present fewer difficulties for nurses and midwives, but it must be remembered that reading is only an adjunct to careful observation of cases, and that know ledge becomes more permanently assimilated, if in the interludes of reading and practical work, pupils ponder on and commit to the memory of their thoughts that which they have read or seen.
