Summary: MUST READ FOR PARENTS/GUARDIANS OF YOUNG CHILDREN
Comment: Do you think the government is protecting your children from unsafe products? If you believe this is so, THEN THINK AGAIN. Felcher does an admirable job pointing out the numerous flaws in the juvenile products industry and showing how your own young children could be at serious risk. For example, did you know that those popular bath seat rings actually contribute to bathtub drownings and that many, many popular juvenile products are recalled because they are dangerous without your knowing? You will be outraged after reading this book once you discover how little is being done to protect young children from dangerous products at the expense of corporate profit. This book is a must read for all parents of young children and would make a terrific baby shower gift.

Rating: 5
Summary: Perhaps the most important gift you can give to new parent
Comment: Although the subject is deeply disturbing, this is a book that all new parents and caregivers should read. Through careful investigation and with thorough documentation, Felcher reveals the truth behind how products for infants and children are marketed without even the most minimal safety tests. Faulty or unsafe designs result in thousands of injuries and deaths a year, deaths that could have been avoided. Accompaning this exposee is solid and realistic advice on how to prevent such tragedies from occurring to your children. Incredibly important.

Rating: 5
Summary: Impressive
Comment: This impeccably reasearched and skillfully written analysis of the baby products industry is a "must read" for all--not only just parents and child care providers. As a collegiate professor, Department of Business and Management, University of Maryland University College, Europe, I've used it in classes to illustrate the principles of product liability, to raise business ethics issues, and to examine the machinery of federal regulation. Resulting discussions have lasted for hours, and rank among the most interesting that I've facilitated. Kudos to the author!
