What roles should midwives play within the US healthcare system? Must they have certified degrees and be under the jurisdiction of a professional board? Do notions of gender erect barriers between the medical professions? This book attempts to answer many questions on the rhetoric of midwifery.

Mary Lay is professor of rhetoric at the University of Minnesota, and director of its graduate rhetoric and scientific and technical communication program. She is the author of several books on technical writing and communication, and is the co-editor of Body Talk: Feminist and Rhetorical Studies of Reproductive Sciences.
