Research is now a fundamental part of midwifery practice. However, not everyone finds it easy to understand the basic principles, and particularly the language of research. This book provides an answer to these frustrations.

The aim of the book is to enable midwives, midwifery students, and other health professionals, to apply research to their own practice. It is useful for anyone, particularly students, who have to evaluate research articles or carry out a review of the literature, as it is packed with practical advice and tips that really work.
