Synopsis

In her new book, REDISCOVERING BIRTH, Sheila Kitzinger explores the universal experience of pregnancy and childbirth and looks closely at feelings and behaviour in pregnancy, the physical and spiritual experience of giving birth, the role of the midwife, the bonds that are traditionally formed between mothers and midwives and ideas about birth in many different cultures. Sensitively illustrated throughout, REDISCOVERING BIRTH is a reliable source of information and guidance for pregnant women, anyone who is thinking of having a baby, and students of the interaction between all those involved with birth. Sheila's principle aim is to enable women and their partners to make informed choices about how they want to live through their own unique experiences of birth and parenthood.

Media Reviews
As Britain's premier earth mother she, more than anyone, has been responsible for a more natural approach to childbirth MAIL ON SUNDAY What is so good about Sheila Kitzinger's books is not just her easy style and elegant use of words, but also the freshness of her approach. Open-minded, unshockable, non-judgemental, solid as a rock in her own integrity NEW GENERATION (the National Childbirth Trust) She explores the subject from a historical and worldwide perspective... thought-provoking, and a change from the usual pregnancy-textbook subjects of antenatal tests, common complaints and birth choices.
