Description: What should the concept of complete maternity care embrace? What contribution can it make to the individual and society? What is the role of the various professions providing service? And what part should expectant parents be encouraged and helped to play? This book explores the full range of the art and science of obstetric nursing. Interwoven with detailed scientific facts and practical guides to techniques are a broad and tender philosophy and an understanding, based on actual experience, of how good maternity nursing can enrich the childbearing experience and foster the necessary adjustments within the family. -- from Foreword.
