Summary

This book explores what it is to be a midwife, looking at the factors which make midwifery such a special profession, as well as some of the challenges. The chapters cover a variety of settings and several different stages in a woman’s pregnancy. Each one is narrated by a midwife who introduces their own theme and recounts a vignette which throws light on their understanding of midwifery and their reasons for becoming a midwife. Drawing together these insights, the editors show what it means to be a midwife today.
