Description
Michel Odent explores the future of birth and the human capacity to give life in this thought-provoking examination of our relationship with childbirth.
The author considers whether we need midwives in an evolving world, where scientific disciplines are increasingly influencing our understanding of pregnancy and parenthood. He asks what kind of midwives we will need if a paradigm shift occurs, and how long we can continue to rely on neutralizing the laws of natural selection.
