Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mayes Midwifery
This is an excellent textbook for those studying to be midwives. It is well set out with easy to read information about all aspects of midwifery. Although written for English midwives the knowledge it shares is relevant to midwives from around the world (buyer studied midwifery in New Zealand). This is also much cheaper than buying from a university book store.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - good basic reading
this is an excellent book for the basics involved in midwifery. it is relevant to midwives, nurses, all medical staff really and is set at an understandable level. i have used this book for alot of references to both patient questions and own personal interests.

i would highly recommend it to any students as a long term textbook.
