Nuture Shock, by Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman

NutureshockExcellent evidence-based discussions on kids and raising them. It's always good to debunk some myths with data from actual studies and I enjoyed the insights, not all of it was relevant to me (yet), but all interesting nonetheless.
Late summer 2013.
4/5.

The Big Book of Birth, by Erica Lyon and Donald Matheson

The Big Book of Birth Forthright and honest, practical advice for those about to give birth. Lots of talk of using a doula during the process let it down somewhat, especially when the author is one herself, but very useful otherwise. March-April 2013. 3/5.

The Happiest Baby on the Block, by Harvey Karp

The Happiest Baby on the Block Apparently essential manual to getting newborns to sleep, but lots of verbiage before getting to the point: 5 Ss. January 2013. 3/5.
