In most cases the complete measurement instrument is included in the book.
Maternity and Women's Health Care
Formerly known as Maternity and Gynecologic care, the title of the 6th edition reflects the changing focus of maternity nursing toward a greater emphasis on women's health care. With a focus on the concepts of caring and critical thinking throughout every chapter, this new edition has been thoroughly revised to address today's ever-changing health care environment. It includes expanded content on health promotion, family, home care, critical care, childbirth education, culture, and health care of women throughout the life span. A new full-color design provides content reinforcement and visual stimulation.
Trials of Labour
Brian Burtch looks at contemporary midwifery practice in Canada and the role of the state in shaping and defining that practice. He examines the qualifications of midwives and discusses their legal status, the legacy of competition between nurses and midwives, and the impact of legal actions concerning midwifery practice. He emphasizes the pivotal role of the state in supporting midwifery and discusses the difficulties created by increasing interest in midwifery among expectant women and the social forces that inhibit the establishment of a self-governing midwifery profession.
The Family in America [2 volumes]
An incisive, multidisciplinary look at the American family over the past 200 years, written by respected scholars and researchers. Family in America offers two powerful antidotes to popular misconceptions about American family life: historical perspective and scientific objectivity. When we look back at our early history, we discover that the idealized 1950s family—characterized by a rising birthrate, a stable divorce rate, and a declining age of marriage—was a historical aberration, out of line with long-term historical trends. Working mothers, we learn, are not a 20th century invention; most families throughout American history have needed more than one breadwinner. In the exciting new scholarship described here, readers will learn precisely what is new in American family life and what is not, and acquire the perspective they need to appreciate both the genuine improvements and the losses that come with change.
