Book Description
Midwifery across the globe faces different issues. In some countries the autonomy of the profession is a tradition, while in some societies midwives struggle to practice autonomously the basic competencies. In one part of the world the medicalisation of childbirth is the main issue, preventing the natural processes of pregnancy and childbirth to flow at their own pace, while in other parts of the world midwives struggle with lack of resources to provide safe midwifery care. The authors of this book practice midwifery in different cultures and within different social contexts. They have to deal with different obstacles and seek solutions to diverse problems. With their contributions, they offer an insight into their thinking, their dilemmas, and the problems of midwifery practices in their countries. However, despite different backgrounds, they all have in common a uniform goal - a wish to offer women optimal midwifery care and to improve midwifery services.

Book Description
The field of neonatal care has been a long-standing concern within the broader field of child health, given the crucial role the neonatal stage plays in the development of individuals. While many of the most effective practices in neonatal care have been widely disseminated across maternal and childcare units globally, cultural and social differences, as well as the availability of resources, necessitate the adaptation of these practices to the specific contexts of each place. This book discusses a range of crucial topics related to neonatal care over two sections. It includes ten chapters that address pertinent issues in neonatal care. The book’s objective is to contribute to the clinical work of health teams in neonatal units by sharing content and lessons for efficient and safe care, both from the global context of the configuration of the therapeutic environment to specific topics of usual care. The chapters have been developed by specialists in neonatology from different countries, and through them, they hope to share part of their experience.
