Book reviews

  • Get me out Get me outI enjoyed this book and the writer's feminist style. It is both amusing and thought-provoking and there are copious references and footnotes.
  • Introduction to research Introduction to research for midwives (third edition)I would like to warmly recommend this textbook as a valuable resource for both student and qualified midwives.
  • Revisiting waterbirth Revisiting waterbirthThe fi rst chapter clearly sets out the professional framework for the practice of waterbirth. The discussion in chapter two as to why waterbirth should be available and encouraged is backed up by evidence of the therapeutic value and clear examples are given.

  • Optyse (lens free ophthalmoscope) Optyse (lens free ophthalmoscope)The new Optyse promises to be a novel and economic alternative to the traditional opthalmascope. It is a sleek, neat and portable design, and does not have an actual lens (versus the several that are in the traditional ophthalmoscope).
  • Mepiform® MepiformMepiform is a thin and discreet dressing for treating scars. No extra fixation is needed. Mepiform conforms to body contours and can be worn in daily activities.
  • Mediband® MedibandMediband is an identity wristband worn to inform of an individual's food or drug allergies, medical conditions or if pregnant.
