Ernest Hemingway is one of the most popular and important American writers of the 20th century. His fiction, ranging from the short story to the novel, is well known, but his medical knowledge, and in particular his knowledge of obstetrics, often is not recognized. To achieve the realistic depiction of the childbirth scenes in A Farewell to Arms required that Hemingway acquire special knowledge of obstetrics practice.
欧内斯特·海明威是20世纪美国最受欢迎、最重要的作家之一。他的小说，从短篇小说到长篇小说，都广为人知，但他的医学知识，尤其是他的产科学知识，却常常不为人所认可。要在《永别了，武器》中逼真地描绘分娩场景，海明威需要掌握产科学实践的专业知识。
