Since the development of modern medicine, men have become increasingly involved in childbearing as obstetricians and, more recently, as fathers. Childbearing has been revolutionized due, in no small part, to the involvement of men. "Men and Maternity" argues that the beneficial contribution of men has been taken for granted. Certain changes to childbearing practice have resulted, which, together with men's involvement, have been encouraged without any reference to evidence and without adequate opportunity for reflection. Considering the findings of recent research and wider literature, and using qualitative research with mothers "Men and Maternity" traces the beginning of men's involvement in childbearing to practicing interventionist medicine. The author discusses the medicalization of childbirth due to the increased involvement of medical practitioners and highlights the risks to mother and child of unnecessary interventions. Additionally, the book examines the difficulties men experience with childbirth, giving particular attention to challenging situations such as fathers' grief. Analyzing the taken-for-granted assumptions about the beneficial contribution men make to childbearing, both as practitioners and as fathers, "Men and Maternity "asks whether there may also be disadvantages to men's involvement.
