The new edition retains the online question bank with downloadable image collection and is suitable for midwives - whether qualified or in training - throughout the world.

Chapters on embryology help explain the occurrence of neonatal pathology

A 'body systems approach' - including embryological development - enables an understanding of the physiological and pathophysiological changes that occur during pregnancy

Clear diagrams allow an understanding of the complex three-dimensional concepts seen in biology

Helpful pedagogy such as 'Main Points' boxes at the end of each chapter act as useful aide-memoires
