This is the sixth edition of a book on all normal and abnormal problems encountered in pregnancy.
Purpose
It is intended as a definitive reference for obstetrics, from physiology to pathology.
Audience
The audience includes anyone in the field of obstetrics, although residents and physicians may derive the most benefit. This has been an essential book in obstetrics and the newest edition is no exception. The authors are leaders in the field.
Features
The book is easily broken down into smaller areas – physiology, prenatal care, intrapartum care, complicated pregnancies, coexisting disease, and legal and ethical issues. This breakdown is very helpful, as readers can easily find a chapter with the desired information… The images are excellent, including ones carried over from the previous editions… An increased emphasis on evidence-based medicine is apparent. One excellent example is in the multiple gestation chapter, which deals head-on with controversial topics such as cerclage, progesterone, and cervical length screening and even recommends potential strategies. As many new residents will turn to this book as their primary learning source, it is important to teach the incorporation of study results into obstetrical practice. This is beautifully done here.
Assessment
This edition continues the book's wonderful tradition as a primary learning tool in obstetrics. It is exhaustive yet topical and provides trainees with excellent examples of incorporating evidence-based medicine. A wonderful resource.

"...In this electronic age, the book comes with an online access. For an inexperienced electronic book reader, such as myself, it was a pleasant surprise to find how accessible the book was online and how the pictures kept their “magic on the screen...Gabbe’s textbook in obstetrics is an excellent book for the obstetrician in training and also useful for the practicing obstetrician who needs to look up basic information, every now and then".
