BREASTFEEDING YOUR BABY by Carl Jones and Ruth A. Lawrence

Here is everything you and your patrons always wanted to know about breastfeeding, including advantages of breastfeeding; the father's role in breastfeeding; relactation; breastfeeding by working mothers; breastfeeding and the adopted baby; common problems; and the controversial practice of shared breastfeeding. Jones is a certified childbirth educator who has written extensively on pregnancy and childbirth. He presents his material in an easy-to-read, anecdotal style. A definite plus is the resource guide (directory), which lists parenting and childbirth agencies and other support group organizations. This highly useful volume makes a nice supplement to La Leche League's classic.

The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding and is a "must buy" for public library collections.
