Oxorn Foote Human Labor and Birth, Sixth Edition 6th Edition

I used this book in the 1990's during nurse midwifery school and it was my favorite text. As an author and professor, I could no longer use the book as it had not been republished for some time. I was beyond thrilled when I saw it was updated. I was not disappointed! This is what I personally consider the "Bible of Obstetrics". It is concise, extremely readable, and includes crucial content without erroneous information and fluff. The new colored drawings are beautiful and the content is well laid out. They include statistical information and precise headings that make looking up content fast and easy. I have an extensive library of obstetrical textbooks and need to purchase the most current versions for textbook writing purposes; however, this is really the ONLY book you need. I often give students a short list of books I would take if I was on a deserted island and needed references to look up information. This is #1 on my list! Great revision!!

After just purchasing the older edition for midwifery school earlier this year, I was frustrated to find out a newer edition was just released; HOWEVER, wow - what a beautiful revision of a classic reference!This new edition is a MUST-BUY for the midwife, OB/GYN, and OB nurse.

I bought it in America, though the us amazon.com, and I received the Indian version of this book. I am now wondering how the Indian version differs from the American.

This is my favorite OB book. The pictures are so helpful and the descriptions are easy to read as well as the rest of the text.

Purchased in 2014. Need it for a current class and just noticed that it's the Indian edition. It's in English but not sure if it's the same as the US edition.

This book is very interesting. Its one of the most enjoyable reads as far as textbooks go. I highly recommend it.

This is a required resource for my college degree. It is handy, concise and jam-packed w/info.! Four more words required...hhmmppphh. Stupid post guidelines.

Great information and so useful as a reference and studying!

Bought for my daughter; no complaints as far as I know! She graduated!

Always a classic book for obstetricians

all time favorite
