Allison Wolff's Reviews > The Birth Partner

A terrific resource for soon-to-be dads, or anyone assisting at a birth. It's comprehensive enough to be helpful to the pregnant woman, as well, making it a great book to read together. It leans toward promoting unmedicated birth, but is balanced overall.

Notice the use of the phrase "pregnant woman" - I got my hands on a 4th edition (aka the pre-"laboring person" edition) of this book at a thrift store so the sex of the person carrying the pregnancy was, thankfully, affirmed throughout.
