The new edition of Physiology in Childbearing with Anatomy and Related Biosciences continues to offer readers with a sound introduction to human biology as it relates to pregnancy and childbirth. The new edition retains the online question bank with downloadable image collection and is suitable for midwives – whether qualified or in training – throughout the world.

  • Straightforward writing style helps demystify a challenging subject area

  • Applies theory to practice to show how a knowledge of the biological sciences can enhance the care given to mothers and babies

  • Designed to facilitate early recognition of pathology to help prevent morbidity and mortality

  • Ideal introduction to basic biochemistry, cellular biology and genetics for those who have no prior knowledge of the subject areas

  • Chapters on embryology help explain the occurrence of neonatal pathology

  • A ‘body systems approach’ – including embryological development – enables an understanding of the physiological and pathophysiological changes that occur during pregnancy

  • Clear diagrams allow an understanding of the complex three-dimensional concepts seen in biology

  • Helpful pedagogy such as ‘Main Points’ boxes at the end of each chapter act as useful aide-memoires

  • Enhances the safety of mothers and babies, both in the developed world and those countries where the provision of adequate care remains limited
  • Revised contributor team provides an international perspective

  • Updated design presents shorter sections of information with concise summaries of ‘key points’ and easy to interpret figures and tables

    5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to follow and unlike other midwifery A&P books, finally found the perfect book for A&P!!!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 May 2017
    Verified Purchase
    Brilliant book. Better than most midwifery books as explains non-pregnant A&P before explaining the pregnancy one. With the other books, they just assume you know all the non-pregnant A&P so they are confusing to read. Whereas this book guides you step-by-step. You can choose how much depth you want to go into for each topic, depending on which year you are in which is invaluable. Looks like it will last me the full 3 years of my degree. I know that I will be reluctant to let go of it after graduation :) It also has the added bonus of being Well written and it makes great use of summary tables. So its definitely an improvement on the last edition. Was hesitating to spend so much money on a book but so glad I did. Obviously, I would definitely recommend it!!!! Very happy with my purchase :)
