The Foetal Circulation

The Book. It is in two sections the first describing the author's experiences as a government medical officer in southern Africa in the middle of the last century which led to his finding the long-hidden secrets of the foetal circulation. The second describes how he uncovered the secrets and gives an account of each part which completely demolishes the long-held orthodox accounts. The foetal heart sounds are described which may be heard with a Doppler foetal heart monitor. The birth changes which no one has ever seen and probably never will are guessed at in full detail.
