Giving Birth: A Journey Into the World of Mothers and Midwives Paperback - 2002
by Catherine Taylor
Catherine Taylor, a doula (birth assistant) and mother, has written an evocative narrative in which she offers insightful observations of the working lives of midwives and the women who have depended on their skills and strength to help bring their children into the world. This is the perfect companion for parents-to-be and all professionals who are engaged in and witness to the miracle of birth.
"One of the most important books on childbirth...A colorful, anecdotal, and research-supported journey from both the mothers' and midwives' perspectives...A classic." (Pam England, nurse-midwife and author of Birthing from Within: An Extra-Ordinary Guide to Childbirth Preparation)
First line
SKYLINE Hospital sits on the edge of a large southwestern city, wedged between a freeway, a dilapidated strip mall, and a neighborhood spotted with pale brown stucco houses.
