This is not for homebirth midwives...
I believe this books does not provide a true respect for the homebirth midwife. The token pictures of a homebirth does not reflect that reality of the increase of homebirths in North America. The chapter on CIRCUMSCION has no place in a midwifery text book, it is unnecessary for health reasons. It is a painful and cruel practice should not be promoted as a skill to learn. There are many other midwifery textbooks other than this one so keep looking!!!

Keep Your Second Edition and Your Money!
A great disappointment after a long wait. The midwifery community, eagerly anticipating the release of this third edition, and expecting promised text changes and updates on practice, received a political travesty instead of a midwifery textbook. Historical information pertaining to the midwifery movement in the United States is not only inaccurate, but intentionally deceiving. Sadly, this book endeavors to further divide midwives from differing educational backgrounds in the U. S., where great efforts are being made to unite the profession. As for core educational and reference content, the book does not provide enough updated information to justify its purchase if one already owns the second edition. For one small example, even though the text touches on information pertaining to out-of-hospital birth, it does not give adequate information in these areas. It is apparent that the author is occupied with political rather than educational agendas. Dont let the name change deceive you ... this is most certainly "nurse-midwifery" from the authors perspective. An extreme disappointment.
