Title: A fine photographic essay, alive with emotion.
Product review: As a lifelong photographer, I was excited to see how the author depicted the most fundamental and emotional event in human existence. My children were born during the "dark ages" when the father was considered the least important person in the birth process. This book goes a long way toward showing that, indeed, the father, as well as other family members can play a vital role in helping the mother bring forth a new life.I gave the book to my 18 year old daughter who is pregnant with her first child. She had been reading many books on the process that touched on what to expect physically but after seeing "Giving Birth", she began to fully appreciate the experience that she is soon to go through. Reading the excerpts of the feelings that the mothers and dads spoke about, she began to be more relaxed and her fears were lessened.I highly recommend this book to anyone about to experience the birth of a child, personally or in a helping role.
