Reviews for The Student's Guide to Becoming a Midwife
“Overall, The Student’s Guide to Becoming a Midwifeis an excellent all-round book to accompany any midwifery student throughout their training. . . I would recommend it to students in direct entry and shortened programmes of study as well as any practitioners returning to practice or wishing to update their study skills.” (British Journal of Midwifery, 1 April 2014)
