The Standard by which All Obstetrics Texts are measuredThere is perhaps no medical specialty that has more misconceptions, "wives tales" and variation than Obstetrics. Williams Obstetrics is more exhaustively comprehensive than any other text for general Obstetrics. Williams has long prided itself on presenting "evidence-based medicine" - separating the wives tales from medical knowledge obtained from published studies from peer-reviewed journals. Perhaps there are those who prefer their Obstetrics with a little voodoo. For those who want to know the most up-to-date scientifically based Obstetrics, Williams is your book!GYN&OB 's Holy Book-Kadin Hastaliklari ve Dogum oncu kitabiWilliams obstetrics is a very distinguished textbook of obstetrics, and enlightens and guides the physician.
