The new midwifery : science and sensitiviy in practice

Page, Lesley Ann, (editor.). McCandlish, Rona, (editor.).

Summary: Practicing as a midwife today requires not only good clinical skills but also a broad understanding of the social and emotional changes a woman experiences before and after birth. This book combines scientific knowledge with the more intangible skills needed for sensitive communication to provide the best possible care to the mother and her family. The second edition of this celebrated text vividly explores the various skills and approaches that lead to successful midwifery practice and uses care stories to bring these to life. New to this Edition: Includes "care stories" - case studies that highlight positive midwifery care and successful childbirth experiences; offers contrasting stories from around the world, illustrating how maternity care in industrialized society differs from that in a non-industrial or third world environment; provides up-to-date research and reference material.
