MAURICEAU, François (1637-1709)
De Mulierum praegnantium, parturientium, et puerperarum morbis tractatus
Parisiis
Auctorem
1681
FIRST LATIN EDITION, translated from the French edition (1681) by the author himself. Perhaps the first obstetric text in the modern sense, Mauriceau's treatise established obstetrics as a science and as a separate medical specialty (Norman). Ref. Krivatsy 7594
Small 4to, [16], 358, [14] pp, engr. front. with portrait of Mauriceau, 32 engr. in the text, one small wormhole in margins, some browning, cont. brown full calf, spine gilt with raised bands, red edges. Good copy
