Good quick summary for natural childbirth
This is a good quick summary to give to those unfamiliar with natural childbirth. It covers how to choose an assistant coach (doula), preparations, and then a large reference section on birth.

I'm a Bradley instructor, so my review is biased. I think this is a very good manual for expectant parents and doulas alike. It sets clear guidelines and expectations for each participant of the birth.

VERY good, informative source. You will learn everything you need to know about coaching your partner through unmedicated childbirth. Pair with Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way and Dr. Bradley's Husband-Coached Childbirth.

The ISBN must be entered incorrectly in the data base in the sky. Two of these books have I received, neither is spiral wound. Otherwise, great, but spiral wound was the big selling point.

I got this for my mom who was my secondary coach but it really didn't help her understand much, except to help my husband be the coach. While my husband was definitely my primary coach, I wanted my mom to be able to be a full back-up, not just my husband's assistant.
