The History of Nurse-Midwifery in the United States is a comprehensive account of the development of nurse-midwifery in the United States. Written by Mary Theopane Shoemaker, a nurse-midwife and historian, the book traces the evolution of nurse-midwifery from its origins in the early 20th century to the present day.The book covers the history of nurse-midwifery in the United States, including the role of nurse-midwives in providing care to women and infants, the development of nurse-midwifery education programs, and the challenges faced by nurse-midwives in gaining acceptance and recognition within the medical community.Shoemaker also explores the social, political, and economic factors that have influenced the development of nurse-midwifery in the United States, including the feminist movement, the rise of managed care, and the changing attitudes towards childbirth and women's health.The book is extensively researched and includes a wealth of primary source material, including interviews with nurse-midwives, historical documents, and statistical data. It is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of nurse-midwifery in the United States, as well as for nurse-midwives, nurses, and other healthcare professionals who work with women and infants.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
