Book excerpt: This volume examines the biologic implications and psychological challenges that occur with the loss of a baby, during pregnancy or in the newborn period. The editors include practical clinical cases with commentaries provided by outside professional practitioners. They address pregnancy loss from many angles -- loss at the various stages of pregnancy, the medical causes of loss, methods of preventing fetal death, the roles of various care providers, and issues of counseling and ethics. The book encourages a broad definition of pregnancy loss by including such information as the feelings of loss experienced by birth parents who give children up for adoption.
