ISBN: 0889205388
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Volume Two of this retrospective bibliography is both a continuation and an expansion of Volume One (1984). It contains references to Canadian medical-historical literature published between 1984 and 1998, and also includes much additional material published prior to 1984. Finally, it substantially enlarges the content of French-language material. Every effort has been made to be as inclusive as possible of articles, theses, book chapters and books, both in English and in French, relating to the history of medicine. No single electronic source can replace this bibliography. The contents are divided into three sections. The first is a listing of material expressly biographical. Section two lists material under a wide variety of subject headings related to medicine, and the third is a complete listing of the authors who have contributed these articles. Simply organized and easy to use, this bibliography will be of value to historians, archivists, librarians, and anyone interested in the history of medicine.

Émergence d'une pratique sage femme au Québec : "être la"
Author: Céline Lemay
Publisher: Editions L'Harmattan
ISBN: 2140194365
Category : Medical
Languages : fr
Pages : 174
Book Description
La légalisation de la profession de sage-femme en 1999 au Québec est un phénomène significatif dans le système de santé québécois. Cependant face à l'incompréhension qu'elle suscite, cet ouvrage nous permet de comprendre ce que signifie ce savoir-faire en partant de la période des années 1980. Ce travail doctoral est organisé grâce à des données recueillies au moyen d'entrevues auprès de quinze sages-femmes ayant exercé au Québec. Le thème le plus révélateur qui se dégage est « tenir l'espace ». Nous comprenons donc ce qu'est la pratique sage-femme : « être là ». Alors que dominent la biomédecine, la démarche du livre est une invitation aux sages-femmes à continuer à « être gardiennes », tant pour elles que pour les femmes en quête de réappropriation du monde, le leur.

Midwifery and the Medicalization of Childbirth
Author: Edwin R. Van Teijlingen
Publisher: Nova Publishers
ISBN: 9781594540318
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
This book provides an introduction to the sociological study of midwifery. The readings have been selected to highlight the interplay between midwifery and medicine, reflecting the medicalization of childbirth. It highlights the major themes in both a historical and a current context, as well as western and non-western societies. Two major themes underlie the organization of this book: that the conception of midwifery must be broadened to encompass a sociological perspective; and that the ongoing trend toward the medicalization of midwifery is crucial to an understanding of the historical, current, and future status of midwifery. By medicalization of childbirth and midwifery the author mean the increasing tendency for women to prefer a hospital delivery to a home delivery, the increasing trend toward the use of technology and clinical intervention in childbirth, and the determination of medical practitioners to confine the role played by midwives in pregnancy and childbirth, if any, to a purely subordinate one.

Delivering Motherhood
Author: Katherine Arnup
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040125069
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 381
Book Description
In the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, motherhood in Canada, as elsewhere in the western world, became contested terrain. Male medical practitioners vied with midwives, and midwives with nurses, while reform-minded middle-class women joined with the eugenically minded state officials in efforts to control the quantity and quality of the population. As reproduction gained in importance as a political as well as a religious issue, motherhood became the centre of debate over public health and welfare policies and formed the cornerstone of feminist and anti-feminist, as well as nationalist and pacifist ideologies. Originally published in 1990, Delivering Motherhood (now with a new preface by Katherine Arnup) is the first comprehensive study on the history of this complex development in Canada, where control over the different stages of reproduction, from conception, to delivery, to childcare, shifted from the central figure of the mother to experts and professionals. The contributions range from the treatment of single mothers in Montreal in the Depression to La Leche League in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. This book will be an essential read for students and researchers of women’s studies, feminist studies, women’s history, and sociology.

L’incontournable caste des femmes
Author: Marie-Claude Thifault
Publisher: University of Ottawa Press
ISBN: 2760320405
Category : Social Science
Languages : fr
Pages : 373
Book Description
Sages-femmes, religieuses, sœurs hospitalières, bénévoles, infirmières de la Croix-Rouge, de colonie, militaires, en psychiatrie, assistantes sociales et professionnelles de la santé sont ici sujets de l’histoire dans le large champ des services de santé au Québec et au Canada. Plus qu’un sujet, il est ici question d’une extraordinaire caste.

Une invitation à découvrir sur plus d’un siècle la place prédominante de plusieurs générations de femmes qui ont participé activement au développement du système de santé au Québec et au Canada.
