Zusammenfassung:Closely associated with pregnancy and childbirth are a wide range of complex psychological factors. These can affect both the parents and other family members as well as health care professionals and society in general. By drawing on extensive research and clinical findings, The Psychology of Pregnancy and Childbirth provides a comprehensive overview of the major psychological changes and challenges which may be experienced during pregnancy, childbirth and parenting. From conception to child development, the book offers a practical and supportive interpretation of the theoretical basis of the psychological issues involved in procreation.
