This latest text from Denis Walsh & Soo Downe is much anticipated. Both have been an inspiration for me and my colleagues over recent years with their championing of the normal birth agenda.

The taster is enough to confirm that I need this book! At last a book that promises to give midwives the research behind what they instinctively know.
