Cornelis van Eldik (1791-1857) was a Dutch medical doctor and in obstetrics. He was a teacher of medicine, a member of several medical committees in his hometown of Nijmegen. Together with his friend doctor A. Moll he edited a very successful medical journal: Practisch Tijdschrift voor de Geneeskunde in al haren omvang. Van Eldik wrote several works, mostly on obstetrics, but also on general medicine like the present work.
