    Preface                                       






  • Obstetrics by Ten Teachers, frst published in 1917, isnow in its 21st Edition. An iconic text, it remains theoldest and one of the most respected and popularEnglish-language texts in the discipline.The 21st Edition builds on the solid foundations ofover a century of previous editions but refects recentadvances in the feld as well as the evolution of medical education. It contains new material, extensiveonline resources and additional tools for self-assessment, written by a new generation of ‘Ten Teachers’.They are all leading clinicians, renowned in theirfelds, and all are intimately involved in the deliveryof both undergraduate and postgraduate training inthe UK and Ireland, allowing the book to refect thecurrent undergraduate curriculum. This volume hasbeen carefully edited to ensure consistency of structure, style and content in common with its sister text,Gynaecology by Ten Teachers. The books can thereforebe used together or independently as required.It has been an honour and a privilege to edit atextbook that we once read as students and we fully


  • appreciate the responsibility of revisiting a muchloved classic, particularly at this critical juncture for women’s health. After almost a century of improvement, maternal mortality rates in some highresource settings are increasing, largely driven by inequalities and disadvantage. Moreover, conditions that affect women more than men garner less research funding. Women have, for example, been historically under-represented in clinical trials and, despite work to rectify this bias, women are not necessarily included in proportions that match the prevalence or burden of disease. Consequently, effective cures for diseases that have been known about since the time of Hippocrates, such as preeclampsia, remain elusive. We therefore hope that the latest edition of Obstetrics by Ten Teachers inspires the next generation of doctors to follow the authors and editors into this discipline. There remains much to be done to make pregnancy and childbirth safe, fulflling and equitable, everywhere and for everyone.
