About this work

Description

"What is the best way to give birth to your baby? Is it a hi-tech delivery in a hospital? Or is it more naturally, at home or in a birth center? Is it possible to combine the best of modern medicine with the non-intervention of natural childbirth? Penny Armstrong and Sheryl Feldman, authors of the wonderful A Midwife's Story, explore the many issues that influence the way women give birth today: culture and history, technology and psychology. They demonstrate, in a warm and convincing fashion, how to find a setting that will help make your child's birth a healthy and powerful experience."-- Back cover.
