Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the ever-present yet routinely ignored risks to infants during childbirth, and considers them within the context of the inherent risks of pregnancy and childbirth. The author argues that problems during childbirth that result in infant and/or maternal death, injury, or lifelong disability are, in many cases, avoidable or manageable. The author draws from a diverse range of perspectives, with expertise ranging from sociology and medicine to economics and public health. Readers will learn about the challenges of identifying pregnancies at risk, the difficulties of managing high-risk pregnancies, the varying global experiences of childbirth, and how healthcare resources and local customs impact outcomes. The author's goal is not only to inform but to advocate for a more just and humane approach to the universal experience of childbirth.
