Birth centres are midwifery's answer to the increasing medicalisation of maternity care. The aim is to provide a safe, but more home-like environment for birth, outside of the hospital/doctor interventionist model. This book discusses the issues surrounding birth centres in England, the Edgware Birth Centre as a well-researched case study, and birth centres across the world. This is the first comprehensive book on the subject.
Mavis Kirkham is currently Professor of Midwifery at the University of Sheffield. She has been a clinical midwife for twenty years and has many years of experience of midwifery education.
