description: In Search of Sleep offers a unique and welcome approach to a timeless topic. Author Bonny Reichert decided after her first child was born that waking to comfort of a crying baby in the wee hours isn't a mistake - it's a choice. Here, she delves into the sleep issue with intelligence, sensitivity and humor. Based on a survey conducted by Today's Parent magazine, Reichert's work is peppered with advice and sympathetic words from the parents of night wakers. Reader's will find a review of popular sleep training techniques and the science of sleep cycles, an exploration of the myths that surround night waking, an examination of the effects that the generation gap, culture and expert advice can have on parents, and a treasure trove of coping strategies.
