Birthrights : a parents' guide to modern childbirth / Sally Inch.

"Every healthy woman, argues Sally Inch, should be free to choose where and how she gives birth, whether in hospital or at home. She should, moreover, have the final say in how her labour is conducted and in the care and treatment of her baby once he or she is born. Birthrights calls for a cool scrutiny of traditional hospital procedures, as well as defending the role of the midwife as the guardian of normal birth." -- Back cover.
