Mother with Child: Transformations through Childbirth

"Rabuzzi rejects the status quo, presenting viable, often spiritual, alternatives to prevailing high-tech, patriarchal models of childbirth" (Booklist).

Rabuzzi, author of The Sacred and the Feminine and Motherself, contends that childbearing has been denigrated, denied, and devalued. This book is intended to help women rename, re-ritualize, reinterpret, and reframe childbearing for themselves and their partners.

"A lovely book. . . . It is a book for anyone wishing to reexamine and reclaim birth's potential for sacredness." —Robbie Davis-Floyd, author of Birth as an American Rite of Passage "Excellent." —The Reader's Review
