Publisher's Synopsis

As more and more women decide to have children in later life, the medical establishment is being forced to reevaluate its traditional stance that such women are high-risk. Pregnancy for Older Women is the only book to present a comprehensive scientific analysis of the medical literature, exploring such controversial issues as amniocentesis, the use of cesarean section, and the effect of doctor's assumptions on case outcomes.
