Soliciting advice: childbirth educational resources

It seems like time to start educating myself about childbirth in more depth. Since I will not be taking classes, I am now soliciting recommendations for books, videos, web sites, or similar self-study educational resources about childbirth.

I already own The Pregnancy Book by Sears & Sears and have a recommendation for Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Newborn by Simkin.

IMPORTANT: I remain an unsolicited-advice free zone. Therefore, if you find yourself about to give advice that does not consist of a recommendation for a book, video, web site, or similar self-study educational resource, stop and look up "helpiness." If you continue, realize that you are branding yourself as someone who is deficient in either reading comprehension or basic courtesy. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

oh, picky picky picky.

My advice on books, videos, and websites was on topic. I didn't talk about horses, did I?
