The perfect marriage

Van de Velde is not an ordinary doctor, as he obtained a doctorate in medicine, was a university professor, and director of the Institute of Obstetrics in Harlem (Netherlands). He rendered great services to science through his innovations and research in physiology, obstetrics, surgery, and others. He authored more than eighty studies written in Dutch, German, and French, most of which he translated into other languages. In this book, he aimed to introduce doctors to the secrets of sensory life that past medical books overlooked, so they may benefit their patients when they come for consultation. He also wanted to present the book to those who did not study medicine, hoping they might benefit, and advised these people to refer to doctors for understanding what might be difficult for them. Only a few rare things will be difficult, yet I was keen to ensure that nothing in this translation would be difficult for them. The book is a unique reference for doctors themselves and for non-doctors, and it is one of a kind in the opinion of researchers in psychological and marital studies. I believe it is the best gift to give to every couple.
