Subject: looking for book

Can anyone help me find a new publication by ACOG about how to recommend
breastfeeding to women at various stages in their pregnancies=3F  Dr.
Marianne Neifert mentioned it in a talk she gave at a conference earlier
this month.  However, I have not been able to find it.  I think she
called it the Gold Book. =20
Thanks, please post for all
