As a midwife I find this book invaluable, and only saw it by accident when a student brought it to work one day. I recognised the lady in blue on the cover as my midwifery tutor, Liz Robson and picked it up!! I ca’t have enough praise for this book.

Arrived nice and quickly however it’s a shame the corners of the book were slightly damaged in the post and the front cover has sticky dirt marks all over it
