The Principles of Ante-Natal & Post-Natal Child Hygiene is an exhaustive medical study that examines the vital factors governing child health from the period before birth through early infancy. Authored by W.M. Feldman, this work bridges the gap between biological science and social medicine, offering a detailed analysis of how heredity, environment, and physical care shape the development of the young child.

The text is structured to address two primary stages: the ante-natal period, focusing on maternal health and the intrauterine environment, and the post-natal period, which covers the essential requirements for healthy growth, nutrition, and disease prevention. Feldman emphasizes the importance of preventive hygiene as a means to reduce infant mortality and improve the physical standards of future generations. Topics include the physiology of the fetus, the impact of social conditions on pregnancy, and the practical application of hygienic principles in newborn care. This volume serves as a significant historical record of early 20th-century pediatric medicine and remains an essential resource for those studying the evolution of public health and maternal-fetal care.
