Abstract
Skills for Midwifery Practice first ANZ edition is an adaptation of the UK title of the same name by Johnson & Taylor. Skills for Midwifery is a highly regarded text, providing invaluable instruction and guidance on a wide range of clinical skills for midwifery students and midwives returning to practice. The publication of an ANZ edition is in response to a strong desire for a localised edition to ensure ANZ guidelines, policies, standards, statistics, terminology, models of care and cultural considerations are reflected. The ANZ edition has undergone some structural change to the original UK edition. The text has been broken down into four sections to reflect the flow through pregnancy, labour and birth, and postnatal care. Each chapter addresses woman and baby, where relevant, and theory and evidence sections precede each skill, explaining the underlying physiology. Each skill has a step-by-step bullet point format, providing clear sequencing of information.
