Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What comes after reflective listening? What comes after the ministry of presence? Spiritual midwifery is a powerful framework for offering pastoral care in today's fast-paced environment. Midwifery offers ways of thinking about those who are served, the work itself, and what it means to be a clinical caregiver within the tradition of the care of souls. Spiritual midwifery has philosophical and spiritual roots that stem from the earliest seeds of Western thought, even back to Jesus and Socrates. Readers will find an inductive approach toward a conceptual model that offers insight for richer assessments and outcome-oriented goals of care. Part One sets out the metaphors of the midwife and the dialogue. Part Two unpacks the methodology behind the mechanics. Part Three looks at creative applications of midwifery, and is followed by a Symposium patterned after Plato's own Symposium. A rigorous theory remains at the center of the work, but the tone is poetically balanced enough to invite the transformation of the spiritual caregiver. From the philosophy of Heraclitus to the theology of Kierkegaard to the spiritual direction of Guenther, The Art of Spiritual Midwifery brings forth a comprehensive conception of pastoral care and its delivery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1690, The Court Midwife made Justine Siegemund (1636-1705) the spokesperson for the art of midwifery at a time when most obstetrical texts were written by men. More than a technical manual, The Court Midwife contains descriptions of obstetric techniques of midwifery and its attendant social pressures. Siegemund's visibility as a writer, midwife, and proponent of an incipient professionalism accorded her a status virtually unknown to German women in the seventeenth century. Translated here into English for the first time, The Court Midwife contains riveting birthing scenes, sworn testimonials by former patients, and a brief autobiography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Treatise on the Art of Midwifery" is a 1760 book educating expecting parents on information necessary for the successful delivery of their child. The aim of the book was to stress the importance of experienced midwives, their knowledge, and their patience. At the end of the 18th century, there was an increased demand for male midwives skilled in the use of obstetrical forceps. The author of the book felt that male midwives used forceps too eagerly to expedite the delivery and that this increased the risk of injury to infants and mothers alike. The patience and skill of traditional midwives, on the contrary, would result in fewer infant injuries and a lower mortality rate.
