Published to widespread acclaim, Tina Cassidy's smart, engaging book is the first world history of childbirth in fifty years. From evolution to the epidural and beyond, Tina Cassidy presents an intelligent, enlightening, and impeccably researched cultural history of how and why we're born the way we are. Women have been giving birth for millennia but that's about the only constant in the final stage of the great process that is human reproduction. Why is it that every culture and generation seems to have its own ideas about the best way to give birth? Cassidy explores the physical, anthropological, political, and religious factors that have and will continue to influence how women bring new life into the world.

Not for aggressive chewers
Size: Medium, Color: Carrot
This product is pretty strong, but my dog tore it apart in 5 minutes. The size is great, and my dog loved tearing it apart. I wish it lasted longer.

Recommended by my chihuahua puppy!
Size: Small, Color: Waffle, Size: Small, Color: Waffle
This has been a fantastic toy for my chihuahua puppy. She actually carries it around by the tag and loves rolling it over with her nose. It's a little big for her, but she still really enjoys it.
The tough edges are perfect for her little tiny shark teeth. I think she'll like this one even more as she begins teething.
It's obviously an adorable toy and it has held up really well so far. It does have a loud squeaker if that's something your dog likes or dislikes. Mine doesn't have the jaw strength or size to squeak it, but she likes it when I do it.
Considering what I paid and the many low quality toys on the market, this thing is a great value. Highly recommend it for toy and small breed dogs and puppies!

Tough Versatile Interactive & Chew Toy
Size: Medium, Color: Strawberry
Update: the Snake is the absolute best in terms of entertainment value. Provides tugging opportunities and our dog is obsessed with it. Love these toys.
This is quite literally one of the only toys we can leave with our puppy as both an interactive and self-play chew toy. Our small puppy (<20lbs) destroys every plush and latex toy in minutes. Has no interest in playing alone with durable toys like Kong and gets bored of them if we don’t play with them interactively. This satisfies our dog’s needs to chew on toys and keeps her entertained when we want a break but also quickly becomes a beloved interactive toy we can play fetch with. Yes, eventually our doggo destroys it as expected since we are using to both as a chew and interactive toy but it takes quite a while and we are very satisfied and impressed. This one stands the test of time.

Good for Enthusiastic Chewers
Size: Medium, Color: Strawberry
I wasn't sure how long this toy would last with my beagle, but it has held up surprisingly well! My dog is rough on toys and usually destroys them pretty quickly, yet this one has survived lots of chewing, carrying around, and playtime.
Definitely a great purchase for active dogs and enthusiastic chewers.
