Subject: Women's stories sought for book about giving birth against medical advice Author: Philippa Peck [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 00:00:14 11/30/03 Sun I've been searching the internet, and came across this website. I am wondering if you might be able to help me. A friend and I are writing a new book of women's first-hand stories of giving birth AGAINST MEDICAL ADVICE. We hope to include stories from women who have continued pregnancies despite maternal illness, or poor fetal prognosis, including stories from women whose babies have died. This book will be co-edited/co-authored by Melinda Tankard Reist (Australia) and myself, Philippa Peck (New Zealand). We have secured an Australian publisher for this work, which will have an international scope, and would be very appreciative of any assistance you can give us in securing stories. The book is due for publication late next year (2004) and will be published in English. We have recently launched an information website (www.defiantbirth.com) for this project which includes an overview of our proposed book and contact details. Thank you.
