Consumer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Thorough, Easy to Understand Comment: This was one of the first textbooks I used for midwifery school; right off there were several things I enjoyed about this book. The book isn't the size of an unabridged dictionary; it includes interesting clinical case studies that focus on midwifery care- not obstetrical care-; thorough review of physiology that was indepth yet not overwhelming. I found the chapters on the physiology of labor as well as embryology and placentation particularly useful. The pages are fairly monochromatic, which I find a bit sore on the eyes. I like lots of color and constrast when reading textbooks- I think it helps retain the info better. The book is also written for British and European midwives, so just get used to the "oestrogen" and "labour" throughout the text. Customer Rating: Summary: nurse-midwifery student Comment: I found this text to be overpriced for a generally uninformative book. If you have had to take A&P at any point in time in your life you will recall more information than this text can provide. I did not find it useful and wish that I would have simply trusted my old A&P texts. An A&P coloring book or anything would have been more helpful. The text is however nice in the fact that it is directed to mid-level practitioners. Don't waist your money. Customer Rating: Summary: Anatomy and Physiology for Midwives Comment: I thoroughly enjoyed this informative and innovative book. If you are a student midwife or a current midwife this book is a must have. It covers all the aspects of the anatomy that we need to know to better inform our parents about embryology and how the pregnant body works and sustains itself during pregnancy. The illustrations are incredibly helpful. If you are a visual person this book is definately for you. The book includes learning outcomes and chapter summaries. There are also many case studies which make you think about how you would respond to a stituation in real life. It also covers reproductive physiology, labor and postpartum. EXCELLENT BOOK!!!
