"Midwifery: Best Practice" comprises a broad selection of contributions that establish best practice and current thinking in midwifery. This compilation offers midwives a succinct review of key issues within the profession in a user-friendly and convenient format, providing a practical reference source.This title is edited by a well-known and respected lecturer in midwifery and published in association with "The Practising Midwife", one of the leading British midwifery journals. This text 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. It raises totally new ideas for consideration. It stimulates learning, debate and reflection.
Each of the main sections begins with an introduction and ends with a page of questions that can be used for group discussions, PREP or just personal reflection on the issues raised.
