Hi everyone,
Does anyone have a few good references out there on the history of
obstetrics and midwifery within Australia? I would greatly appreciate any
help on this matter.
Kindest regards
Alphia
Hi Alphia....
another point of reference you may like to try is Kerreen Reiger's book.....'Our bodies , Our babies - The forgotten women's movement' 2001, Melbourne University Press.
Fantastic book.... contexulising the political struggle inherent in the Australian maternity services landscape.....
Good luck
Yours in birth,
Tina Pettigrew
