Customer Reviews

Full of content
This book is brilliant for those of us starting out in a midwifery course with only basic biology knowledge. This book has helped me to understand complicated systems of the anatomy in our bodies. A must book for any aspiring midwife.

A must for student midwives
This book is must-have text for student midwives. It is clear and unambiguous and explains the changes that occur in pregnancy in relation to normality.

Case studies are used to illustrate and develop the reader's knowledge and it is all supported by comprehensive reference lists and suggestions for further reading.

I would suggest that this book would be useful to all midwives, not just students, to enhance and maintain their knowledge and practice. I wish that this book had been in print when I was a student.

essential reading for all midwives
This book presents anatomy and physiology for midwives in an innovative but easy to follow way. It is not just useful for midwifery students, midwives of all levels of experience will benefit from the way the book is structured and illustrated.
