‎Third edition of Rosenstein's seminal work on pediatrics. ""Sir Frederic Still considered this work “the most progressive which had yet been written”"" it gave an impetus to research which influenced the future course of pediatrics. Rosén was particularly interested in infant feeding. The Underrättelser were originally published in the calenders of the Academy and were later collected and issued in book form in 1764. English and German translations were published in 1776."" (Garrison & Morton 6323). (Garrison & Morton 6323 - the first edition).‎
