Richard K. Reed draws on the feminist critique of professionalized medical birthing to argue that the clinical nature of medical intervention distances fathers from child delivery. He explores men's roles in natural childbirth and the ways in which birth transforms a man's identity and his relations with his partner, his new baby, and society.
