Product Description

A reviewer on Amazon.co.uk
"Brand new 2006. The absolute must have for midwifery training. Thank goodness for this book!"

Review
This handbook in an invaluable resource for students of midwifery and for practising midwifes. It reflects the continuum of midwifery care, with information from the preconception period through to that following childbirth... This book is a good source of reference. It is attractively small and can be carried around for quick reference. (Journal of Advanced Nursing )

The absolute must have for midwifery training. Thank goodness for this book! (A reviewer on Amazon.co.uk )

This book is a pocket sized guide to midwifery practice! Thorough and covering practically every topic encountered this book is a must-have for all student midwives. Written by Midwives this book offers an in depth guide to practice from a midwifery perspective... An essential, one you will want to have your own copy of. If you buy one book, make it this one! (A reviewer on Amazon.co.uk )

The team of contributing authors has given clear guides to essential emergencies alongside evidence-based information on a number of topics. Each part is clearly indexed for quick access, useful in a clinical environment... It is a comprehensive text for reference and as a resource of core information it will be useful to student midwives ... I believe it will aid student midwives and will be recommending it as a resource tool. (S. M. Davis, Senior Lecturer )

This is a welcomed addition to the midwifery literature and a resource which is likely to become part and parcel of the midwife's "bag of tools". I commend this work to the profession and trust that it will aid midwives and other healthcare professionals in meeting the demands and challenges of health service provision in the 21st century. (From the Foreword by Professor Paul Lewis, Academic Head of Midwifery & Child Health, Bournemouth University, UK )

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Essential Book for students and midwives. , 22 Jan 2007
This is a brilliant book!
I am a second year midwifery student and am currently using it whilst out in practice to look up what tests the woman can be offered at various points in her pregnancy. Everything I am to be assessed on is in here from antenatal to postnatal including complications as well as the 'normal'. It even covers contraception, breastfeeding and parent education.
I have dozens of midwifery books but can honestly say that this is the best one I own. I highly recommend it to both midwives and students.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for student midwives & qualified midwives, 18 Jan 2007
A great book, with excellent descriptions of all things midwifery related. Covers everything from pre-contraception, antenatal, labour & delivery through to the postnatal period, including low and high risk midwifery! It is small enough to carry in your bag too! An splendid resource
