With a focus on improving woman-centered midwifery care, this unique resource provides a thorough discussion of feminist theories and their relevance and application to midwifery practice, education, and research. Comprehensive in scope, it covers key issues - including clinical practice, management, and education - to familiarize readers with feminist theories and their relevance and application to midwifery practice, education, and research. Provides a comprehensive overview of the relevance of feminist thought to midwifery practice. Encourages readers to use feminist theories as a way of looking at the world and, in particular, as a tool to critique the provision of care given to women and families through pregnancy and childbirth. Offers a woman-centered approach to care from pregnancy to postnatal. Includes insightful contributions from experts in the field who focus on one or more theory to explore a particular issue. Presents a short introduction at the beginning of each chapter, highlighting what will be covered. Summarizes the main issues at the end of each chapter and identifies key shortcomings in present research or 'hunches' about where ideas should move in the future.
