Summary: From a father of a 2-yr old boy
Comment: I am a father of a two-year old boy. Until the baby was born, I had never been aware of any issues surrounding pro or anti vaccination. My wife, I found out, is adamantly against just about every vaccination. Being deeply confused and frustrated when my wife simply refused to have the boy vaccinated, I decided to educate myself on the issue - so I can actually have civilized and educated discussions with my wife. In summer 2002 the reviewer below freedom2think kindly replied to me by stating that this book was the only non-biased book she had found on the subject issue. One by one, the book breaks down and discusses every major vaccine preventable disease and its respective vaccine known today in America in a manner that is easy to understand. It talks about the bio-chemical mechanism of how vaccines are supposed to work, its history, risks involved in both cases of vaccinated versus non-vaccinated, statistics, data, symptoms to watch and what-to-do in both cases where symptoms are observed. If does not tell you which side you should join, but rather helps you understand what really the issue is about and perhaps decide more comfortably. I would strongly recommend this book to you especially if you are a novice on the topic.

Summary: Make this your first book on vaccinations
Comment: Objectivity in the controversy of vaccinations is almost non-existent. Aviva Jill Romm has accomplished a singular feat in providing parents with an intelligent discussion of the issues without telling the parent which they should choose. Rather, she presents summaries of the most pertinent vaccination studies, analyzes difficulties in interpreting existing data, and explores thoughtful questions involved in the decision. She makes it clear that "to vaccinate or not to vaccinate" is not an easy question, and it has no easy answers that will suit everybody. To help parents make an educated decision, Romm also offers a succinct primer on how the immune system works, what symptoms and risks present with each "vaccine-preventable disease," and standard treatments for each disease. The last half of the book includes herbal remedies and recipes for common childhood diseases, as a supplement to other healthy choices to improve immune system functioning. This book serves as an outstanding reference on vaccination-related facts, a balanced decision guide for parents, and a handy cookbook for home remedies. I buy this book for my friends who are seriously and genuinely investigating the vaccination decision without prejudice.
