I love midwifery books but this wasn't wqs seriously lacking in actual birth stories. It seems the author spent more time in administration than practicing, thus I didn't find this book as exciting as other midwifery books I've read. Still, she's a good author and I can't fault her writing technique.

Poorly written, basically I met this person, they are now my best friend. I applied for this job, I got it. I delivered a baby.

A fascinating slice of midwifery history from a well respected midwife. More interesting for me as a healthcare professional, I particularly enjoyed reading about the changes and innovations the author had contributed to. However, the writing was a little dry in places and I feel fellow nurses and midwives may enjoy this book more than lay people.
