MIDWIVES AND THE LAW

An announcement from Valerie Runes, Acting Editor, From Calling to Courtroom:

"It is with delight, pride, and more than a little relief that we announce to you the final release of the book From Calling to Courtroom: A Survival Guide for Midwives. We began work on the book early last fall, and have put a tremendous amount of time and effort into it...at times we have struggled, but we believed that the final product would be a gift to U.S. Midwives. I hope you agree that we have succeeded.

The book is a result of the experience and talent of many people -- midwives, attorneys, and midwifery advocates--all of whom volunteered their time and energies. From the beginning, our plan was that all those who worked on the book would do so without cost, and the book would be available without cost. You may find it at:

www.fromcallingtocourtroom.net

You can read it online, or you can download the entire book as a .pdf file. You may also order a hardcopy at cost.
