Excellent, Easy to Read, Well Illustrated Guide
23 July 2000
Format:Paperback
My husband and I both found this to be a very well written book that covers all stages of pregnancy, labor and birth. Though it is not exhaustive in all the different views and opinions surrounding pregnancy and delivery, it does do a very good job giving a well illustrated guide to the basic, normal process. Seems to favor neither natural nor assisted (i.e. epidural/medicated) delivery. Just gives facts. ALSO, it is VERY graphically illustrated (weak stomachs beware!)
Extremely realistic

Full of high quality photographs and diagrams. Lives up to its name. Not for the squeamish. Recommended.
