Summary: Thanks from the temporarily reluctant dad!!!!!!!!
Comment: Well, I really think I needed this book. I was anxious to say the least but when the baby arrived, i had no idea what to expect or what to do. My wife's books did not apply to me. I had a lot of mixed feelings about the whole thing but could not tell anyone about it. Dr. Goldman's book was the only one that seemed to let me feel what I wanted or needed to feel. I wasn't filled with joy automatically. A lot of people have been attacked for having one feeling or another or not having certain feelings-especially in the delivery room. I am in love with my baby now but I'm glad that it's ok to let those feelings develop without the guilt. That's not to say that the book is full of doom and gloom--it's NOT--it was ME that was full of doom and gloom...at first. There were some things in the book that made it ok for me to have mixed thoughts for a while. The book was a breath of honest, fresh air!! What a relief. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: I Loved this book!!!!!
Comment: This book was great. As a new dad, I was completely overwhelmed. But as I lay in bed at night between my colicky baby's frequent awakenings, I would read Dr. Goldman's book. He has a great way of being truthful, sensitive and funny. I loved the wit, cartoons and advice. Very easy to read. This book is not censored and does speak frankly about some important issues not covered in other like books. Since so many books are written for women (although my wife loved this book and laughed outloud dozens of times) as a man, I appreciate that. Dr. Goldman taught me how to easily save money for my baby, how to engage my friends in my new life with my baby and how to love my wife and new family in all sorts of ways I did not even imagine were possible. He answered all my questions-even some I was fearful of asking my friends or my doctor.
There are differences between men and women--in all sorts of ways--this is an indisputable fact. This book helps bring husband and wife together. Since having a baby will change the nature of your relationship with your wife or partner, Dr. Goldman points out how people can get into trouble if they aren't in-tune with each other. It is a "relationship-failure prevention" book too!! There are many dimensions to having a child-Dr. Goldman gets at all of them with humor and professionalism. It teaches a team approach to raising a baby and is comprehensive medically and psychologically. I highly recommend this book to men and women--if you buy one book on being a new dad, this is it!!! Thanks Dr. Goldman for such a real book!!

Summary: He Has The Experience And The Ability
Comment: Easily out does any of the fathering books on the market. It is to the point, smart, funny and accepting. It gives direction and guidence without attitude. I appreciate the author's style and the ease at which I can quickly read the book. It is a book written for men, by a man (no co-authors) with plenty of children (unlike some books touting expertise without substance) and experience. Outstanding.
