I didn't see this show, but a friend called to say that she interviewed a fascinating anthropologist, Dr. Sarah Hrdy, who talked about nurturing babies.  You can catch it at http://www.marthastewart.com. MS asked her what 4 books she would recommend for a new mother. These are on MS' website with order info:

      Melvin Konner,"Childhood" (out of print), John Bowlby, Attachment, Sheila Kitzinger, The Complete Book of Pregnancy and Childbirth, Hrdy's book,  Mother Nature, and Wenda Travathan, Human Birth.  Has anyone read Dr. Hrdy's book?
     

I told my friend this is super because imho, many of the types of people who are into MS are overly concerned with control and everything being perfect.  This is not to criticize anyone who likes MS, btw.  I think her style is lovely, and wish my house looked like hers:-)  But having a sister who is a MS, I can tell you, their lives are not as interesting as ours:-)
