Description
Anatomy and Physiology for Midwives by Jane Coad, Kevin Pedley, and Melvyn Dunstall provides a comprehensive introduction to the field of reproductive anatomy and physiology, ideal for those new to the subject. The book builds from the foundational principles of human structure and function, progressing through conception, embryological and fetal development, and the maternal responses to the growing fetus. Suitable for students of midwifery and qualified midwives returning to practice, this textbook offers a structured approach to learning, with learning objectives at the start of each chapter and case studies to reflect on the implications for clinical practice. The book also acknowledges the importance of underlying research and integrates theory and practice, with over 200 illustrations to clarify complex anatomical, physiological, and clinical information. The latest edition features updates in the fast-moving field of reproductive physiology, including recent advances in fertility treatment, postnatal care of premature infants, and the impact of the gestational environment.
