(5* Amazon Review )

"This book is a long awaited text providing a comprehensive lookat many of the medical conditions encountered by women duringchildbirth. Other texts with similar content have been recentlyproduced but this text has the advantage of the information beingpresented in tabular format, thus making it easy to follow and anideal reference tool. The care for each condition is broken downinto pregnancy, labour and postnatal aspects and then presentsexpected care from the medical and midwifery perspective, althoughthe reader will naturally have to apply any local policy for morespecific care. The conditions are divided under logical headingsand have been written by experienced professionals who havespecialist knowledge in the field they are covering. There is alsoa welcome addition of a chapter covering addictive disorders andpsychiatric disorders, both currently high on the agenda."
