Fantastic book for student midwives, 2006-05-15
I bought this book when I commenced my midwifery degree, it has been really helpful and I wish I had bought it before I started. The chapters are clear and easy to read. Some of the words and phrases may be new but get a good midwifery dictionary too and it takes some of the uncertainty away. An excellent book.
And the answer to the question everyone wants to know...., 2007-02-15
