This book reexamines the 'standard' procedures used to 'manage' American childbirth, identifying non-evidence-based obstetric interventions as rituals enacting core values of the American technocracy. This new edition brings together new data with Davis-Floyd’s insights into the ritualization and models of labor and birth.
