Thank you for your kind words. FYI: The first edition of Ob Myths is sadly outdated, but my co-author, Amy Romano and I are in the home stretch of completing  the manuscript for a top-to-bottom brand new edition to be published by U Michigan Press. In the meantime, sign up for postings to Amy's Lamaze sponsored blog, Science and Sensibility.  Also, next February, Amy and I will be doing a joint presentation at the CIMS conference on highlights from the new Ob Myths. Hope to see you there.

I got this one from the library, and it IS a good one. I highy recommend it. I plan to read it a couple of more times before I give it back and eventually buy it for myself.

I also wanted to comment on how wonderful it is to have such a treasure of knowledge as yourself readily avaliable "in person", so to speak. I am very glad I've found these forums, now I just can't wait until I can afford to buy a copy of "Obstetric Myths Versus Research Realities". I've been dying to read that one for at least a year. Thank you Ms.Goer!

I'm about 3/4 of the way through it. Block really nailed it, and she is a good writer to boot, which is always a plus. Here's hopes that her work spreads beyond the "choir."
