Helpful and Practical
This book gave a very good overview of different events that occur in a family's process towards having a baby. It covers not only the scientific processes that occur, but the supprtive and emotional processes that are important to the process as well. It gives insight into all forms of childbirth and broadly covers all complications one might see in the field. I found it very easy to read and have used it on several occasions during my clinical rotations in a Labor and Delivery unit as a main reference material. I highly suggest this for any nurse or person interested in working with Women's Health.
