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

A Doody’s Core Title for 2019! 

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 

•Solid evidence-based approach highlights the scientific underpinnings of clinical obstetrics, with special emphasis on physiological principles

•Current professional and academic guidelines are incorporated into the text and appear in easy-to-read tables

•Updated with 3,000 new literature citations through 2017 

No other text can match the long-established scientific rigor and accessibility of Williams Obstetrics. With its state-of-the-art design and  review of the newest advances and protocols, this not-be-missed clinical companion brings positive outcomes within reach.

The Baby Birthin' Bible gets Better.
by Richard hall (5 out of 5 stars)

Excellent synopsis written by many of the celestial luminaries in the field. I recently took the written recertification exam (exclusively in obstetrics) and this was my sole resource for preparation. A complete reading of the text and second review of the portions I thought significant enough to highlight was rewarded with a score of 89. Skip the high priced review courses and take the money you save to treat your significant other to a getaway vacation. This is all you need.

A staple

I opted to rent this for the semester (after racking up wayyyyy too much in books last fall!) and I've been so glad to have this as a source! As a midwifery student, a lot of this info is out of my scope, however, I enjoy diving deeper into certain conditions and really rounding out my knowledge. I find the text fairly easy to follow and images/illustrations are helpful. I just may have to buy this one!

I've packed it in luggage!

Obviously anyone ordering this book is not doing so for leisurely reading. I'm sure it's required. Boy is this book heavy, but I've packed it in luggage and as carry on simply because this book is so well written an is a great accompanist to your lectures and other readings I needed to have it with me. Each chapter is so 'learner' friendly, unlike so many of the other required readings (uhemm...Blackburn!). Yes this book is expensive, yes you might crack a vertebrae lugging it around, yes you will actually learn a few things.
