Maternity & Women's Health Care (Lowdermilk, Maternity & Women's Health Care) (Hardcover)

I have really enjoyed this book (as much as a textbook can be enjoyable). It is concise, well-written, and to the point. Information is intelligently arranged so it is easy to reference and look things up. There are also lots of care plans included to help you out with clinical paperwork. My only gripe with this book is that the glossary is kind of puny- so if you don't know what something is (and there are lots of words in OB that you won't hear anywhere else) then you have to go back to the index and flip through the chapters to find where that thing is talked about in the book.
