I put comments on the "Amazon Books Blog" which you get to off the Books Home Page, but I thought I'd put them here too. When my wife become seriously ill one of the most frustrating things was communicating with the doctors. I didn't... read full review | report as inappropriate
This book has some important points to make, but it's written in a somewhat superficial tone, and the focus is on diagnostic biases, not really on how doctors think about actual diagnoses and treatment. If you're looking to learn about that... read full review | report as inappropriate

It's good to keep an open mind when reading this book. As Ms. Hay delves into the spiritual so born again's may not appreciate it. Lot's of good info, if you can get past some of her beliefs that you may not share.

Just a word of warning before you buy this book, it is extremely pro-breastfeeding and might make moms of bottlefed infants feel guilty. I wasn't aware that the authors favored the family bed approach either, which I disagree with. I almost felt I... read full review | report as inappropriate
Overall it's a good common sense guide to parents. I learnt about baby slings from this book and now I'm really enjoying my Maya Wrap Sling-Bright Stripes. However, this book is very biased toward stay home mothers, and certainly not very... read full review | report as inappropriate

I just finished reading this book cover to cover. The only time I set it down was to wipe away the tears from side-splitting laughter. The chapter on "sneak attack" poos and the "hanging chad" poos made me burst into laughter so hard that... read full review | report as inappropriate
I had heard this book was amusing and informative, but I found it lacking in both. I can't recommend this book for anything. Don't waste your money. read full review | report as inappropriate
I think it was a good idea. I expected more information about health and got a little disappointed. Anyway, it is a good bathroom reading. read full review | report as inappropriate

This book is by far the best I have read on low-tech fertility methods. Not only does it explain in simple terms the various natural signals of the cycle, but it includes numerous discussions of what charts that are a little less than... read full review | report as inappropriate
I hoped this book would help me get pregnant, after more than a year of trying, but there was almost nothing in it that I didn't already know. Sometimes there's just no fertility to take charge of, I guess. I find it kind of scary that so many... read full review | report as inappropriate
It has a lot of good information but nothing that I think you couldn't find on the 'net or just common knowledge. I have been trying to get pregnant for 18 months and I pretty much knew all that she went over in her book. I was disapointed... read full review | report as inappropriate

The study of mental disorders is an ever evolving process. It is good to see a revision of the old DSM IV which has been in use for the past five years. The book is printed in a easy to read print size and the layout has been updated. There... read full review | report as inappropriate
I quote Karl Menninger, on the publication of the DSM-II in 1968:"This year [1968] the APA took a great step backward when it abandoned the principles used in the simple useful nosology [DSM-I]. In the interest of uniformity, in the interest... read full review | report as inappropriate
Although DSM-IV is the bible of psychiatric diagnosis it's validity as a party game should not be overlooked. With a group of people gathered round you can almost certainly categorise any one of them with numerous mental disorders that should... read full review | report as inappropriate
