Book Description
What is the future of the human capacity to give birth? What is the future of underused physiological functions? Should we expect an evolution ofHomo sapiensin relation to the way babies are born? Can fast-developing scientific disciplines induce a new awareness?In this wide-ranging, interdisciplinary look at the future of birth, renowned obstetrician Michel Odent takes the question Do we need midwives? as a starting point. If a paradigm shift occurs, what kind of midwives shall we need? For how long can we go on neutralizing the laws of natural selection? Are human beings able to raise vital questions before it is too late? Unprecedented situations should first and foremost inspire appropriate questions.
