Although there are few gynecology/ Obstetrics books available in Pakistan, most are unable to grasp subject comprehensively in the shortest possible time. Our students are able to understand the topic but are unable to list them effectively once asked to do so.
This book is written for both undergraduate and postgraduate students, keeping in view their special requirements and dire need of a comprehensive book on the subject of Obstetrics and gynecology. Topics have been very wisely selected and include those aspects which a postgraduate doctor encounters during clinical training. This book also meets the need of the time. It is time to explain to the world that Indo-Pak subcontinent in general and Pakistan in particular,have been different. Not only on the vast canvas of geopolitics, we have always had a different body response compared to the other races. This book fulfills this requirement as local incidences based on local studies are quoted.
I find this book as a prism reflecting light on Obstetrics / Gynecology , right from the basics to pathophysiology, treatment options and recent advances. I wish this book to be a long lasting guide and companion on the subject.

There are very few books who understand the readers. The book on Obstetrics by Dr. Arshad Chohan is one of those rare books that make the reader fully indulged int he topics. This book is clinically oriented and to me, it is a bedside book for the management of patients and getting through the exams.

"The teacher in a school is an architect, whose craft is human spirit".
By reading these books, now i believe on Allama Iqbal's saying. When i was a new born in the field of Obs, books of Obs by Prof Dr. Arshad Chohan provided me guideline on each step. I read a renowned book in final year M.B;B.S and i was lost. I was having no concepts and there were a number of questions which were un-answered. Then my senior helped me out and advised me to read books of Dr. Arshad Chohan, and it solved every problem of mine. I am a 3rd year resident in Gynaecology and still i am getting benefit from these books. I am thankful to Prof. Dr. Arshad Chohan for writing such a helpful literature.

Dr. Nazia said...

We as Pakistanis, can proudly say that a Pakistan based author has written a complete book on the subject of Obstetrics. No need at all to go through western books, that do not meet the criteria here in Pakistan.

"Labour" is a very conceptional topic and the way with which the topic is written and illustrated with diagrams is just perfect. Now being a PGR, i still always start my topic first with this book before going for any other book.

Dr. Umtal Batool, PGR said...

I can undoubtedly ay that itis one of my favorite books, concise yet comprehensive and addressing all those disorders which are prevalent in Pakistan. Opposite to all other books for Obs which address the diseases / disorders prevalent in western countries. Name of the book is self explanatory, dealing with the fundamentals of Obstetrics in such a way, which is easy to understand for all, may it be a house surgeon or a post graduate student. Commendable work, I must say.
