Dear Alphia,
A reference for you is

Summers, A, 1998, 'The lost voice of midwifery; midwives, nurses and the
Nurses Registration Act of South Australia,' Collegian, July; 5, pp.16-22.

This discusses the history of midwifery and its dominence by nursing and
medicine in Sth Aust

 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

Hi

A book that always stuck in my mind was called 'Medical Dominance' - the
author was Willis (sorry I can't find a full reference). There was a chapter
on midwifery and the process of medical dominance from settlement in
Australia. The book is out of print - but you should be able to get a copy
in a library.

Cheers

Thanks Jane,

Have that one- picked it up in a great second hand book store-  I agree 
with you - I love the way that Evan has analysed the subordination of 
midwifery within Australia- highlighting the specific history of Australian 
midwifery rather than lumping it together with  England and America.

Thanks
Take care
Alphia

Hi Lynne,
Thank you so much for your offer of assistance.  Basically I am just 
looking at the historical development of midwifery and obstetrics within 
Australia- of course I am interested in Australia nationally speaking, but 
if there is some interesting info on NSW.  I am doing the research as well- 
so if I find anything of interest I will pass it on to you.

Take care

You could contact Marie Barton too (Brisbane). She wrote a paper on the
history of midwifery in Australia. If you are interested I could give her
your details.

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
