Transformations through Childbirth

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

"Rabuzzi rejects the status quo, presenting viable, often spiritual, alternatives to prevailing high-tech, patriarchal models of childbirth" ( Booklist). Rabuzzi, author of The Sacred and the Feminine and Motherself, contends that childbearing has been denigrated, denied, and devalued. This book is intended to help women rename, re-ritualize, reinterpret, and reframe childbearing for themselves and their partners. "A lovely book.... It is a book for anyone wishing to reexamine and reclaim birth's potential for sacredness." -Robbie Davis-Floyd, author of Birth as an American Rite of Passage "Excellent." - The Reader's Review
