Omschrijving

The Truth About Twilight Sleep is a book written by Hanna Rion and first published in 1915. The book provides a detailed account of the controversial method of childbirth anesthesia known as ""twilight sleep."" Rion, who was a trained nurse and midwife, explains the history and development of the technique, which involves the use of a combination of drugs to induce a state of semi-consciousness in the mother during labor and delivery.The book also explores the various opinions and controversies surrounding the use of twilight sleep, including its effectiveness, safety, and potential risks to both the mother and the baby. Rion presents both sides of the debate, providing a balanced and informative perspective on the subject.In addition to its historical and medical significance, The Truth About Twilight Sleep is also a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of women's health and childbirth practices. The book offers a fascinating glimpse into the changing attitudes and practices surrounding childbirth in the early 20th century, and the ongoing struggle to balance the benefits and risks of medical interventions in childbirth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
