• W1015144570 abstract "Childbirth and the Future of Homo Sapiens by Michel Odent, 2013. London, England: Pinter & Martin. ISBN 978-1-78066-095-0The cover of Childbirth and the Future of Homo Sapiens is an enlarged, pixelated image of the human hand, held up as if to say, Stop! I instantly found this an intriguing choice for the cover of the book. Was the author warning us to beware before embarking upon this reading journey? Indeed, there were several moments while engaged in this odyssey of contemplation on the future of the human species, that I had to stop and pause with shock at the author's turn of phrase. One chapter is entitled, Should we criminalize planned vaginal birth? My doula heart shuddered for a moment - is Michel Odent, long-time proponent of home-like birthing rooms and steadfast advocate of honoring the precious time just after between a mother and newborn, really asking this question?Like any good researcher, one must ask the difficult questions and then follow the data to their truthful conclusions. And data he has, as he points out in his book. Catalogued and searchable through keywords like birth weight, breastmilk, and bulimia are thousands of scholarly articles and international research papers on the that he has collected over many years in his database, www.primalhealthresearch.com. It is from this hefty foundation of data that Odent has built the premise of his book.Odent outlines the first objective of his book: Should we expect transformations of our in relation to the way babies are born? (p.13). Regardless of the answer (which is a resounding yes, by the way), I was struck more by how critical this question is - and how essentially no one else - is asking it. As Odent points out, if you go to a talk about birth, you will find pregnant moms, midwives, doulas, and those whose profession is to support the primal period. But you won't find much more diversity than that. Most people outside of those groups are not even curious as to what is happening currently in the childbirth world and even fewer ever wonder about what effect the way we are may have on the evolution of our species. Even more fascinating and disturbing, those who are curious about where we are headed as a rarely, if ever, grant the primal period any importance. Odent insists, All those interested in the future of Homo sapiens should be interested in the way babies are born (p. 55).From his meta-viewpoint on the research, Odent makes a compelling argument on howbirth practices are affecting the evolution of our human species. The advent of understanding epigenetics (gene expression being affected by the environment), has allowed us to consider the fast and spectacular transformation of species (p. 17). In other words, we can sometimes see the indelible effects of widespread cultural practices - such as those surrounding - on the human as a whole within a generation or two. Odent underscores that the research shows, time and again, that interference during labor and has psychological, emotional, and physiological impacts on the babies and thus - by statistically significant extension - the human as a whole. …" @default.
