The Aware Baby
"The Aware Babyis chock full of reliable information and practical advice on a wide range of child rearing issues from how to deal with infant crying to discipline and toilet training. The style is clear, concise and vivid. It is a pleasure to read, and I recommend it most highly."-Thomas R. Verny, M.D., Psychiatrist and author ofThe Secret Life of the Unborn Child"The exquisite awareness of babies celebrated in this book is revolutionary and refreshing. Soundly based on empirical research and great good sense, this book will doubly bless both the parents and their very fortunate infants."-David B. Chamberlain, Ph.D., Author ofThe Mind of Your Newborn Baby"The Aware Babyis an extremely useful (perhaps essential) guidebook for parents... I particularly appreciate the depth at which Dr. Solter deals with sleep, feeding, and behavioral difficulties, and the methods that she advocates for dealing with crying (probably the most misunderstood aspect of parenting). Her chapters on playing with babies and on approaches to bring about secure attachment and bonding are exceptional. This book should be mandatory reading for all parents and for professionals who deal with babies and children."-William R. Emerson, Ph.D., Pioneer of infant therapyDr. Aletha Solter... gives us the key to infant, and later adult, mental health. It is my belief that every prospective parent on earth should read her book,The Aware Baby."-Paul Vereshack, M.D., Psychiatrist and author ofThe Psychotherapy of The Deepest Self
