I prepared a library presentation last year based on the 2001 World Breastfeeding Week theme "Breastfeeding in the Information Age". A librarian and I updated the library's breastfeeding materials. To my surprise, she inserted the above mentioned book title into the library handout on breastfeeding resources. Not familiar with this book, I read it and was immediately incensed by its lack of evidence-based research. It was largely subjective and antecdotal. The librarian included it b/c she was providing a balance of author's viewpoints. As a polite rebuttal, I asked her to order "Don't Kill Your Baby: Public Health and the Decline of Breastfeeding in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries" by Jacqueline Wolf 2001. Although I have not read this book, I thought it sounded like an informative book, has anyone read it yet? -- Marion, Ohio, USA The purpose of life is a life of purpose. -Robert Byrne *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
