Title: an anti-woman book
Review: Of the 20 books on pregnancy that I read during mine, this was the worst one. It's obvious intent is to scare women into unquestioning submission to their doctors rather than give them accurate and empowering information to make wise pregnancy and birth choices for themselves. Giving ample information on very rare and serious complications, Curtis ignores the very real dangers of the common interventions he is so fond of. For instance, the only mention of fetal monitors is that they will be used in labor, but he fails to mention that studies show no improvement in maternal or fetal morbididy and a 25% increase in c-sections when monitors are used! He gives scant attention to prepared childbirth, and his only definition of pain management is drugs. I was most disgusted with his discussion on episiotomy, a normally unnecessary and universally-loathed surgery. I wouldn't recommend this book to any 1st time mom. Better to choose a more realistic book, like one by Sears & Sears.
