For choosing a single article to give to physicians on breastfeeding, I
second Jon's recommendation of the Family Practice Recertification Journal
article, but also nominate:
Cunningham, Allan S., Derrick B. Jelliffe, and E.F. Patrice Jelliffe 1991
Breast-feeding and health in the 1980s: A global epidemiologic review.
Journal of Pediatrics, 118(5).
My copy comes from La Leche League, Reprint #68, September 1991. This is an
excellent article on the health benefits to the babies of breastfeeding.
Once "Breastfeeding: Biocultural Perspectives" is published in November, I
would recommend Cunningham's updated version of the above article, which is
a chapter in the book.
