In an age where information is increasingly abundant and sometimes overwhelming, it is difficult to keep up-to-date with current thinking. Midwifery: best practice provides a solution to this information overload by presenting essential information in an accessible manner.

Edited by a well-known and respected lecturer in midwifery and published in association with The Practising Midwife and Midwifery, two of the leading British midwifery journals, Midwifery: Best Practice 2 contains a wide range of articles, research and stories covering topics from pregnancy to postnatal experiences. This exciting new text -

  • Challenges existing ways of thinking
  • Raises totally new ideas for consideration
  • Stimulates learning, debate and reflection
  • The sections begin with an introduction and end with a page of questions that can be used for group discussions, PREP or just personal reflection on the issues raised.

    This second volume in this successful series concentrates on issues surrounding pregnancy and birth, including domestic violence and risk: very topical and sensitive issues within the profession and of interest to every midwife.

    An essential purchase for every midwife interested in best midwifery practice.
