Editorial Reviews

Reviewer: Julie Baker-Townsend, DNP, WHNP- BC, FNP-BC(University of North Florida Brooks College of Health)
Description: This book presents clinical practice guidelines for midwifery and women's health. This edition includes access to an accompanying website.
Purpose: Although there is no stated purpose, the implied purpose is to provide guidelines for the direction of clinical practice.
Audience: The intended audience is midwives and women's health nurse practitioners, and the book meets the needs of this audience. The authors are experts who have the highest credentials available in this area.
Features: The book covers in detail updated clinical practice guidelines for the care of women during the childbearing phase and throughout the lifespan. This book is excellent. It is concise and uses evidence-based clinical practice guidelines to guide care of the patient.
Assessment: This is an appropriate clinical resource for women's health and midwifery providers. The content is up to date and accurate. The presentation is succinct, offering clinicians a quick and accurate reference. The website does not add significantly to the value of the book. This update is justified as new evidence is always emerging.
