The focus of this book involves a new and emerging area, the field of perinatal or birth-related trauma which is relatively unrecognised. It is quite recent that acknowledgement has been given to the possibility that Birth can be a traumatic experience even when the life/health of the mother and infant are not significantly threatened. The editors and an interdisciplinary group of researchers from maternity care and from the field of child psychology explore connections between birth experiences and family relationships and infant and early childhood development and the emerging field of Intergenerational transmission of trauma. This work will help undergraduates as well as experienced clinicians and allied health care professionals in contact with childbearing and perinatal women and their families to provide them the best care.
