Excerpt from The Use of the Obstetric Forceps

It was only after Peter Chamberlen, in 1647, published his little pamphlet, in which he alludes to a discovery made by his father, Paul Chamberlen, as the result of which he was able to save many lives, that midwifery practice began to assume becoming dignity as a branch of medical and surgical science. But nearly another century passed before the details of the discovery became generally known and Obstetric practice among the better classes began in earnest to assume its proper place.
