Summary: Respectful of both parents and children
Comment: Dr. Jay Gordon encourages parents to follow their instincts and tune in to their baby in this guide to parenting that covers the period from pregnancy through baby's first year. This book advocates a gentle approach to parenting infants and strongly supports breastfeeding -- it's clear that Dr. Gordon, unlike many authors, knows the research on infant feeding and is responsible enough to share it (unlike those doctors like my first pediatrician who give you "babies do just fine on formula" instead of providing information based on research). An Appendix titled "A-Z Conditions and Concerns" provides information on such topics as jaundice, infant acne, and teething. Dr. Gordon is so funny, down to earth, and wise, and I never feel as though he's pandering or talking down to the reader. I'm glad he wrote this book.

Summary: A Compassionate, Relaxed Approach to Parenthood
Comment: This wonderful book offers guidance and encouragement in easy to read doses tinged with humor and common sense. If you are interested in attachment parenting, the importance of breastfeeding, a healthy diet, and the pros and cons of certain vaccines, you will thoroughly enjoy reading this book. All your baby's milestones during the first year are discussed in a compassionate, delightlful way. To top it off, there is an "A-Z Conditions and Concerns" section at the end of the book, listing short, simple paragraphs which describe and advise on a multitude of topics such as colic, diaper rash, fever, teething, travel and yeast infections. For a taste of Dr. Jay Gordon's humor, warmth and great parenting advice, go to his website which has extensive articles on a myriad of subjects...

Summary: Listening to your baby
Comment: First of all , this approach is not "new" at all. How this man could write a book with so little helpful information is beyond me. The titles of the help sections are tempting, but the sections themselves have absolutely no substance. Pity
