Review :
"It is invaluable and does exactly what it says it is in the preface. It is so quick and easy, and light! I bought the book in an emotional moment because I knew the authors, as opposed to needing another book, but I am so glad I did."Sandra Cussons, Midwife 'Love this book. Small so easy to carry around. . The layout is also really good.' 'An absolute must for midwives - qualified or students. Easy to understand, brilliant, would not be without mine.' 'Really helpful reference guide when Mayes and Myles are too big and heavy to carry around!'
