This exciting new textbook gives a thorough and well-illustrated presentation of anatomy and physiology for midwives and midwifery students. Anatomy and Physiology for Midwives covers the scientific aspects of midwifery, such as pharmacology and immunology, from an introductory level to clinical application. To provide a more concrete learning experience, it includes case studies and examples of recent research. This textbook also provides a thorough introduction to anatomy, physiology, and basic science for those training to be midwives who have no anatomy or physiology background. Because of its level of detail, it is also useful to those students already qualified as nurses who are now training to be midwives.
