A review by katrinajr
Spiritual Midwifery by Ina May Gaskin

3.0

purely academic interest, of course. :)

Interesting stories and lots of good ideas in here. This book is dated (of course) and I feel like hospital births have swung back in the direction of treating birth as a natural process. Definitely compared to how things were in the 1970's.

Also a fascinating glimpse at hippie culture (use of the word psychedelic many times in pure earnestness!).
