This is accomplished by using incorporating more than 3,000 new literature citations and guidelines from the most trusted professional and academic organizations.One of the important features of the twenty-fourth edition is a greater focus on the fetus as a patient and an expanded discussion of fetal diagnosis and therapy.

A new reorganization of the text enables the book to highlight more effectively the myriad disorders that may complicate pregnancy.Williams Obstetrics provides a convenient, clinically relevant text of value to the busy practitioner.

Much of this data is conveniently distilled into newly created tables and diagnostic and treatment algorithms. During discussion, numerous sources are cited to provide evidence-based options for patient management. Additionally, nearly 900 images complement the text, many of which are new or enhanced. These include sonograms, MR images, photographs, diagrams, and graphs.

Excellent synopsis written by many of the celestial luminaries in the field. I recently took the written recertification exam (exclusively in obstetrics) and this was my sole resource for preparation. A complete reading of the text and second review of the portions I thought significant enough to highlight was rewarded with a score of 89. Skip the high priced review courses and take the money you save to treat your significant other to a getaway vacation. This is all you need.
Obviously anyone ordering this book is not doing so for leisurely reading. I'm sure it's required. Boy is this book heavy, but I've packed it in luggage and as carry on simply because this book is so well written an is a great accompanist to your lectures and other readings I needed to have it with me. Each chapter is so 'learner' friendly, unlike so many of the other required readings (uhemm...Blackburn!). Yes this book is expensive, yes you might crack a vertebrae lugging it around, yes you will actually learn a few things.
I opted to rent this for the semester (after racking up wayyyyy too much in books last fall!) and I've been so glad to have this as a source! As a midwifery student, a lot of this info is out of my scope, however, I enjoy diving deeper into certain conditions and really rounding out my knowledge. I find the text fairly easy to follow and images/illustrations are helpful. I just may have to buy this one!
Williams continues to be the number one resource in obstetrics. This new edition is well organized and easy to read. It would be great if there were an online version that is more readable and easier to search than Kindle.
I like it very much, its a complete book.
Good book, essential for med students.
Hated this book. It was not easy to read. It has confusing information. Way to wordy for college students that have other things to read and other classes to prepare for. Almost everyone in my program agreed. If I could give it a minus sign I would.
