Williams Obstetrics-25판

The world's premier obstetrics guide-now updated with a greater focus on maternal-fetal medicine

The obstetrics text that has defined the discipline for generations of obstetrician-gynecologists is now more
timely-and essential-than ever. Written by authors from the nationally known University of Texas Southwestern
Medical Center, Williams Obstetrics maintains its trademark comprehensive coverage and applicability at the
bedside, while offering the most current perspective of the field.

This landmark text begins with fundamental discussions of reproductive anatomy and physiology.
These dovetail into clinical chapters covering obstetrical complications such as preterm labor,
pregnancy-related infection, hemorrhage, and hypertension, among others. Representing the culmination of
a century of clinical thought, the new Twenty-Fifth Edition is enhanced by more than 1,000 full-color
illustrations plus an increased emphasis on the fast-growing subspecialty of maternal-fetal medicine.

Features

- Entire section on the diagnosis and treatment of fetal disorders, providing deeper insights into
fetal complications in utero

- Traditional focus on the varied medical and surgical disorders that can complicate pregnancy

- 1,000 eye-catching illustrations, including updated graphs, sonograms, MRIs, photographs,
and photomicrographs
