The New Art and Science of Pregnancy and Childbirth

The New Art and Science of Pregnancy and Childbirth demystifies the myriad of queries, concerns, worries and myths related to pregnancy from the stage of planning for pregnancy, through the course of pregnancy and delivery into the postnatal period. The information is expertly presented in a clear and concise manner, from a local perspective, allowing couples to obtain a realistic expectation of how their pregnancy will progress. The book is well organised such that it can either be easily read from cover to cover or by targeting the specific chapters of interest, all of which are well cross-referenced. The breath and depth of coverage of the varied pregnancy-related issues impresses upon me the immense cumulative expertise, which has been gleaned by the authors and their contributors through their years of experience. This book truly does tell you `What you want to know from your obstetrician'. I have no doubt that couples that are either currently pregnant or planning a pregnancy will find this book extremely useful and interesting.
