This book is a guide to labour and delivery management for trainees in obstetrics and gynaecology, and midwives.

Divided into three sections, the text begins with detailed discussion on labour, from preparation before labour and delivery, through the different stages of labour, to postpartum care.

The next section covers caesarean delivery, and the third, ‘special labour’ which explains labour complications, twins, prelabour rupture of membranes, and more.

The book is authored by recognised experts from the USA and Italy, and is based on evidence from randomised controlled trials (RCTs).

Clinical photographs, diagrams and tables further enhance learning.
