The Politics of Maternity (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book critically explores the complex issues surrounding contemporary childbirth practices. The authors offer a rigorous, and thought-provoking, analysis of current clinical, managerial and policy-making environments, and how they have prevented sustaining the kind of progress we need. The book sets out the case for renewed attention to the politics of childbirth and what this politics must entail if we are to give birth back to women.
