William Smellie

[engl. Original-Ausgabe: William Smellie, Classic of Obstetric Illustration with Thirty-Nine Engraved Plates by Charles Grignon after Jan van Rymsdyck, Pieter Camper, and the author, London 1754]

"It was Smellie who first laid down safe rules for the use of forceps, who separated obstetrics from surgery, and who imparted to obstetrics the stamp of science. His famed treatise on midwifery appeared in 1752, followed two years later by this set of plates, which is very rare and is said to have been issued in only 100 copies. The life-size plates are distinguished for their accuracy."
