This second edition of a groundbreaking book is substantially expanded and revised to deliver the foundation for an evidence-based model for best practices in midwifery—a model critical to raising the United States’ current standing as the bottom-ranking country for maternity mortality among developed nations. With a focus on updated scientific evidence as the framework for midwifery practice, the book includes 21 completely new chapters that address both continuing and new areas of practice, the impact of institutional and national policies, and the effects of diversity and globalization. Incorporating the midwifery model of care, the book provides strategies for change and guidance for implementing evidence-based best practices.
