Críticas

Review from previous edition This handbook is an invaluable resource for students of midwifery and for practising midwives. It reflects the continuum of midwifery care, with information from the preconception period through to that following childbirth... This book is a good source of reference. It is attractively small and can be carried around for quick reference. (Journal of Advanced Nursing)

The absolute must have for midwifery training. Thank goodness for this book! (Reviewer on amazon.co.uk)

This book is a pocket sized guide to midwifery practice! Thorough and covering practically every topic encountered this book is a must-have for all student midwives. Written by midwives this book offers an in depth guide to practice from a midwifery perspective... An essential, one you will want to have your own copy of. If you buy one book, make it this one! (Reviewer on amazon.co.uk)

The team of contributing authors has given clear guides to essential emergencies alongside evidence-based information on a number of topics. Each part is clearly indexed for quick access, useful in a clinical environment... It is a comprehensive text for reference and as a resource of core information it will be useful to student midwives ... I believe it will aid student midwives and will be recommending it as a resource tool. (S. M. Davis, Senior Lecturer)

This is a welcomed addition to the midwifery literature and a resource which is likely to become part and parcel of the midwife's "bag of tools". I commend this work to the profession and trust that it will aid midwives and other healthcare professionals in meeting the demands and challenges of health service provision in the 21st century. (Professor Paul Lewis, Academic Head of Midwifery & Child Health, Bournemouth University, UK)

This is the first pocket-sized bible for midwives that encompasses everything required in caring for a mother and baby from pre conceptual to the final examination. It is just as important as the CTG machine or other obstetric tools. Although this is a must-have book for the midwifery student, it will be of benefit to all levels of midwives and clinicians. (Nursing Times)
