Summary: Lacks balance
Comment: The heading states that this book is a comprehensive guide for safe and effective therapies for childhood illnesses, though it is seriously lacking. Kemper has no experience with homeopathy so she just gives us the usual "it doesn't work" jibe.
Does she even know that Homeopathy successfully cured thousands in epidemics of the past? Did she even do research on the studies that she quotes in this book? Most studies done on homeopathic remedies by the allopathic community are seriously flawed - no homeopath even in attendance.
Then she goes on to validate the use of antibiotics for just about everything, does she not know that antibiotics have been seriously over prescribed for decades and that this is why we are seeing resistant bacterial diseases?
It's easy to see where she is coming from.
I recommend doing a full check on the author before buying any book on childrens health.

Rating: 5
Summary: Best ever
Comment: I thought the first edition was terrific. But the newest one is even better. This books contains BOTH mainstream and complementary therapies -- all the latest studies. It's easy to read, and yet my pediatrician said SHE learned new facts from it. MUST HAVE on any parent's bookshelf.

Rating: 5
Summary: really helpful
Comment: Dr. Kemper is truly a help to all young parents with questions about their child's health.
