Re: "Second Series." No I am not series editor. I dumped that job about 3
years ago. I have no idea what will be included, revisions of old items or
new ones. Best thing to do is to write to LLLI and ask to be put in touch
with the new Series Editor. Her name is Beverly Rae. I think she lives in
NY, but I'm not sure, so it would be best to inquire of someone who knows.

>Also, has anybody read or seen these from the catalog:
>BF the Adopted Baby
>Nursing Mother's Guide to Weaning
>Beyond the Breast-Bottle Controversy
>Kangaroo Care: The Best You Can Do to Help Your Preterm Infant
>A Parent's Guide to Autism
>BF: Terms, Techniques, Problem Solving

I have not read any of the above titles that you asked about. Best way to
determine (or at least one way) if they are worth bothering about is to ask
about the author. If Kangaroo care is done by G.C. Anderson or one of her
graduate students, it would likely be good, for example.
