InaMay came to the last Homebirth conference in Perth several years
ago and
she was very enlightening.
She and the Farm midwives are very informative and open to many
influences
including research which they contribute to .
InaMay has done alot in regard to the benefits of turning onto all 4
for
Shoulder Dystocia in international midwifery circles it is refered to
the
Gaskin manaouvre!
So they remain leaders in Midwifery
I will look for a link to their site

Ina May has produced more recent versions and she has a newly
published
CBE
book called Ina May's guide to childbirth which is a good read. The
Farm
midwives still practice, in fact many women with twins or breeches on
board
will travel to The Farm to birth in one of the birthing cabins. The
midwives
run midwifery workshops and Ina May is well respected in the USA even
in
obstetric circles her group always had really good outcomes, nothing
flaky
about them at all. The Farm is a much smaller group now kind of
semi-retired
hippies I guess. It is a great place to visit if you ar ever in rural
Tenessee. Also big on environmental issues. very green and vegan.

"Spiritual Midwifery" was considered "THE" book in alternate
midwifery
practices during the 1970's
I haven't looked at it in the last 10 years or so but it would be
depend
on what you are interested in. Modern Midwifery it is not!
The farm where Ina May Gaskin practised would now be considered "Old
Hat" but I guess there have been midwifery practices that will or
should "NEVER" change
If you are interested in the progress of midwifery - homebirth
developments in the USA - alternatives in midwifery practice 30 years
ago then it is, from memory, a fascinating read

Gaskin? Thanks Fiona
