Bearing Meaning: The Language of Birth

Rating:
Summary: unveiling the female
Review: Robbie Pfeufer Kahn is definitely a clear voice in a world of constructed chaos. The book is academic and personally based, which reveals the misconceptions about reproduction as a whole. I highly recommend this book to any woman young or old to uncover the hidden meaning of birth and the strength that resides

Rating:
Summary: A brilliant account of birth, love, and struggle.
Review: The Language of Birth is a book of epic proportions and is sure to become the keystone of reading for anyone interested in birth. Professor Kahn has succeeded in the complex while graceful weaving of personal narrative, academic research, and poetry. Through Kahn's thorough research, she has created a platform for those with concern and interest in the fields of feminist studies/women's studies, modern obstetrics, traditional birthing practices, and parenthood to turn to. The Language of Birth must be read by academics and the lay reader alike. I give The Language of Birth five stars out of five!!!
