	Customer Reviews: Average Rating: Rating : - preachy and outdated, some good info This is a book in sore need of an update. The Bradley method itself is something I remain interested in -- as I am hoping for an unmedicated, natural childbirth. However, in order to get the information I need about methods, relaxation, and other guidance on actual childbirth, I felt I had to sift through scores of preachy and outdated information on OB and hospital practices. For instance, I know of no hospitals that still routinely strap a woman down. Had I been less informed, however, I might have grown frightened, as the book says that all hospitals do this. Further, a woman shouldn't feel reassured by a hospital's "birthing" rooms with delivery beds, as the book warns women that these beds are often transformed into tables with straps and stirrups when the doctor arrives. Hogwash! Likewise, the book has outdated (and inaccurate even when the book was updated in 1996) information on how epidurals are administered as well as their side effects. This really undermines the credibility of the author on other subjects, which is unfortunate. Because the book does offer some valid information (tips to avoid episiotomy, exercise) I won't give it one star, but it is with reservation that I give it two. A final note on the illustrations and aesthetics on the book. The photography of the book features men and women from the 70's. I was distressed when I first saw these pictures becuase I thought I had accidentally picked up an old version of the book (I did a double take, later on, when I realized it was updated in 1996, especially considering the outdated medical information). What's more, the illustrations in the book almost always depict the woman fully naked. While this is understandable and even desirable in a pregnancy book -- obviously while depicting the birth itself or something specific to anatomy, I am not sure there is much purpose in the woman being drawn naked while she is doing her prenatal exercises. (The dad in these pictures, at least, gets to wear shorts.) This book nearly turned me off the Bradley Method overall -- having read it I am now not sure I could stomach the class. This is too bad, because everything I have heard about the classes has sounded empowering and helpful. I am hoping that the classes are more up-to-date than the book. As for the book itself, I would recommend that an informed reader borrow this (don't give the author another penny until she corrects the errors and outdated info) and remember the bias when relying on any of the information contained within the covers. + See Full Customer Review
