In the rapidly advancing age of technology and rapidly changing trends in management, diagnosis, drugs and procedures, it is of paramount importance to update books and manuals periodically. This book was earlier updated and edited by Dr Neerja Bhatla in the year 2001, an International Edition (Sixth edition), but soon the publishers felt the need for revising it within a span of five years. Many new chapters and rewritten a few chapters all together trying to maintain Sir Jeffcoate’s style.

We, Narendra Malhotra and Pratap Kumar, feel very honoured for being asked to revise again the best textbook on gynaecology by Sir Norman Jeffcoate. Dr Jaideep Malhotra (ART specialists) has especially added inputs in infertility, assisted reproductive technology and other chapters. In the rapidly advancing age of technology and rapidly changing trends in management, diagnosis, drugs and procedures, it is of paramount importance to update books and manuals periodically. This book was earlier updated and edited (2008) by us as an international edition (Seventh edition), but soon the publishers felt the need for revising it within a span of five years. Professor Norman had expressed in 1974 that he had endeavoured to preserve his personal approach. We have added many new chapters and rewritten a few chapters, all together trying to maintain Sir Jeffcoate’s style. We have retained the description of Professor Jeffcoate’s original case discussions, photographs and pictures. New additions have been made on the feedback from postgraduate students. Dr Neharika Malhotra Bora, Assistant Professor, Bharati Vidyapeeth Medical College, Pune, Maharashtra, India, and Dr Parul Mittal, Consultant, Global Rainbow Healthcare, Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India, have been instrumental in adding a lot of inputs. Dr Nidhi Gupta, Dr Pranay Shah, Dr Maninder Ahuja, Dr Kanta Singh, and Dr Narayan M Patel have painstakenly revised and edited and updated many chapters. We hope that the undergraduate and the postgraduate students will appreciate our efforts to update this Bible of Gynaecology.
