I'm not *totally* surprised that a book from Johnson & Johnson would
depict breastfeeding well.  After all, they don't sell ABM, right?  And
they do sell nursing pads... maybe some other breastfeeding-related
products, too, although I can't think of any others off the top of my
head.

I also know a few people who work for J&J or its affiliates, and they seem
to be fairly accommodating towards breastfeeding employees.  One
division's HR director emailed me about a year ago and asked for input re:
setting up a pumping room.
