Abstract

Midwives work at the very heart of our society, sharing in women's lives at a crucial and sensitive stage. Midwives need to recognise the issue of domestic violence as well as understand the many complex causes. Can midwives do anything to help a woman who has been, or is currently, in a violent relationship? If they can,should they? This book aims to answer these questions. Pregnant women: violent men is written by an experienced midwifery educator and health professional, and by a social scientist and Open University Lecturer who has considerable experience in supporting women who survive violence. Case studies and scenarios illustrate how to apply theory to clinical midwifery practice, taking into account contemporary society, exploring the causes of violence and focusing on violence in pregnancy and childbirth. This book: Explores the shape of society and examines the roots of violence. Sensitively considers the role of the midwife when faced with domestic violence among childbearing women. Offers sound advice and ideas on how the midwife can support, influence and stand alongside women as they experience both childbirth and the crime of domestic violence. Discusses who else can help, including the law and the Women'sAid network. Pregnant women: violent men is an essential purchase for everymidwife and health care professional involved in offering childbearing women care and support.

Abstract

Healing practices in Mesoamerica span a wide range, from traditional folk medicine with roots reaching back into the prehispanic era to westernized biomedicine. These sometimes cooperating, sometimes competing practices have attracted attention from researchers and the public alike, as interest in alternative medicine and holistic healing continues to grow. Responding to this interest, the essays in this book offer a comprehensive, state-of-the-art survey of Mesoamerican healers and medical practices in Mexico and Guatemala. The first two essays describe the work of prehispanic and colonial healers and show how their roles changed over time. The remaining essays look at contemporary healers, including bonesetters, curers, midwives, nurses, physicians, social workers, and spiritualists. Using a variety of theoretical approaches, the authors examine such topics as the intersection of gender and curing, the recruitment of healers and their training, healers' compensation and workload, types of illnesses treated and recommended treatments, conceptual models used in diagnosis and treatment, and the relationships among healers and between indigenous healers and medical and political authorities.
