I am delighted to commend this concise book to healthcare workers in Women’s and Children’s Health globally. The book provides evidenced practical guidance for systematic assessment of pregnancy risk for preterm birth during antenatal care, towards the provision of personalised care to prevent premature birth and other adverse pregnancy outcomes, consistent with the targets of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG, 3). It is written for maternal and newborn healthcare providers (doctors, nurses, community health workers) and provides desktop evidence-based information to facilitate antenatal risk assessment and the signposting of pregnant persons to care advice, referrals, supplements and treatments.
