By Timothy Augustine Coghlan

Book Overview

""Childbirth in New South Wales: A Study in Statistics"" is a book written by Timothy Augustine Coghlan and published in 1900. The book is a comprehensive study of childbirth and maternal mortality in New South Wales, Australia, during the late 19th century. Coghlan, who was a statistician and government official, analyzed data from the state's birth and death records to determine the rates of maternal mortality, infant mortality, and stillbirths. He also examined factors such as age, marital status, occupation, and place of birth that may have influenced these rates. The book provides a detailed picture of the state of childbirth and maternal health in New South Wales during this time period, and offers insights into the social and economic conditions that affected women's health and wellbeing. It remains an important historical document for anyone interested in the history of medicine, public health, or women's issues in Australia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
