| Summary | "The Matron's Manual of Midwifery, and the Diseases of Women During Pregnancy and in Childbed" by Frederick Hollick is a scientific treatise written in the mid-19th century. This comprehensive manual aims to provide a practical and accessible guide to midwifery, specifically targeting women themselves, while being informative for medical students and practitioners. It likely covers various aspects of childbirth and the associated diseases of women during pregnancy and postpartum, intending to educate women about their own bodies and improve the care they receive. The opening of the manual contains a preface and an introduction discussing the author's motivations for writing this text. Frederick Hollick emphasizes the historical neglect of women's knowledge about their own reproductive health and aims to address this gap through clear, scientific explanations and practical guidance. He underlines the significance of preparing women for childbirth and the importance of understanding the physiological aspects of pregnancy, arguing that education can mitigate fear and suffering during childbirth. In this context, Hollick also asserts that this work represents a notable departure from previous literature, aiming to be simultaneously accessible and scientifically rigorous to empower women with knowledge about their bodies and childbirth.
