Description

The First Trimester offers a feminist anti-racist perspective on women's reproductive health and midwifery issues. This incisive collection of essays examines the impact of professionalization, legalization and state involvement on women-centered care and on the perspectives of midwifery consumers.

Midwives and social scientists from a variety of cultural identities, political perspectives, geographical locations and education and training backgrounds reflect, in clear and accessible language, on the legislative processes involved in the regulation of midwifery.

The First Trimester is an invaluable resource and reading for midwives, parents-to-be, policy makers, healthcare workers, educators and the general public.
