McCOMBS’ DISEASES of CHILDREN
Dr. McCombs emphasizes just those points you most want to know. He gives you a short but adequate description of each disease, considerable attention to prophylaxis, methods of nursing, emergency measures, illustrated descriptions of how to take the temperature, pulse, respiration, perform intubation, give hypodermics, etc. You get also special chapters on infant feeding, modification of milk, and therapeutic measures employed in childhood.

DeLEE’S OBSTETRICS
This work is used more extensively by nurses than any other book on obstetrics. It really considers two subjects—obstetrics for nurses and the actual obstetric nursing. A chapter of special value is that on massage of the breasts, covering 20 pages, and showing you by lines and arrows just exactly what directions the strokings should take. In addition, you get the anatomy and physiology of the female reproductive organs. The work contains 235 illustrations, many of them in colors.

DAVIS’ OBSTETRIC NURSING
In this work every phase of obstetric and gynecologic nursing is considered. You get really two books in one, the first half being given over entirely to obstetric nursing in all its complications, and the second to gynecologic nursing, and the special training it demands. You are told how to manage a case from pregnancy right on to the care of the baby. You are told just how to meet every emergency. There is an entire section on obstetric surgery. The Fifth Edition has been thoroughly revised.
