1.		A Midwife's Story from Pinter & Martin Ltd Price: $10.17 Customer Review: I'm an older guy, and I don't remember why I first read this story about 15 years ago, but I have read it every few years since, and I can never get through it without tears towards the end.

2.		Pushed: The Painful Truth About Childbirth and Modern Maternity Care from Da Capo Press Price: $10.88 Customer Review: If you're pregnant and can only read one book about childbirth, it should be this one. Written in an engaging but pragmatic journalistic style, this is a fabulously researched look at what has gone wrong in hospital delivery rooms, leading to a 33 percent C-section rate in America today.

3.		Born in the USA: How a Broken Maternity System Must Be Fixed to Put Women and Children First from University of California Press Price: $11.53 Customer Review: The most insightful book about the state of maternity care, backed up 100% with studies and references that are rock solid. I would recommend this book to anyone associated with maternity care, and that includes moms and moms to be!! Marsden Wagner is on a mission to open the eyes of those who... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Birth: The Surprising History of How We Are Born from Grove Press Customer Review: So many of my friends were pushed into birth experiences that were not what they expected by not knowing what to expect when you get to the hospital, and why things are the way they are right now in the US. The truth is that it IS possible to have a positive childbirth experience, you just have to... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace . . . One School at a Time from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $9.00 Customer Review: I bought this for almost everyone on my Christmas list this year. It affected me greatly, and I think it should be required reading in High Schools!	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Baby Catcher: Chronicles of a Modern Midwife from Scribner Price: $10.20 Customer Review: I was born in my house and witnessed the births of my two younger brothers. Yet I hate to say, I never imagined that I myself could deliver at home. All my friends were born at hospitals, so that must have been normal, right? I used a hospital midwife for my first child and had an amazing birth... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		Vaginal Politics: A midwife story from Bluwaters Press Price: $14.35 Customer Review: I received this book from my sister today. I began reading and did not put it down until I finished it.

8.		Birth as an American Rite of Passage from University of California Press Price: $20.65 Customer Review: this is a very important book. it may be a little heavy on the (anthropological) jargon for some people but it is worth it. it's an eye-opening study of the medicalization of birth in our culture and it's really interesting, upsetting, and informative. she includes many interviews with women who... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		The Birth House: A Novel (P.S.) from Harper Perennial Price: $10.17 Customer Review: A minor quibble: For a novel set in and about the time of the 1st World War (1914ish), what's with the reference (p. 276 of hardback edition) to transistor radios? The transistor wasn't even invented until about 1947, well after the end of the 2nd World War.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
