review 1: I just realised this book is already 10 years old, so it could be excused somewhat from a repetition of ideas found in plenty of other books of a similar ilk. It does read a little like a shopping list of examples - this is how they did it in the old days/how not to do it now, but that could be useful if you wanted to use it to refer to in case of a specific problem. Some of the references are good but at times other arguments are a bit huffy and simplistic. I was amused on one or two occasions though. Shame about the cursory mention for EC (though by the name of 'natural infant hygiene') at the end of a long rant about potty training, though he did admit to having no experience of it. The whole section may have taken a different tone had he practised EC with his children.... more Hats off to him though for giving up his career in paediatrics to care for his children, experiencing what many a woman goes through when becoming a mother. I enjoyed his other book better.
review 2: Piece of shit. The author uses the kind of arguments that won't hold together and the kind of comparisons that only use extremism to try to convince you. Honestly, piece of shit. If you want to read a really good book about the same subject, with about the same conclusions but with real scientific backup, please read "Bright from the Start" by Jill Stamm & Paula Spencer. I'm so sorry for those who can only read Spanish, becase this piece of shit is in their language and the really good books are only in English. If you've read me this far, go read Bright from the Start, since you can.Una mierda. El autor usa la clase de argumentos que no se sostienen y la clase de comparaciones que sólo utiliza extremismos para intentar convencerte. Sinceramente, una mierda. Si quieres un libro realmente bueno sobre el mismo tema, con más o menos las mismas conclusiones pero respaldado por ciencia de verdad, por favor lee "Bright from the Start" de Jill Stamm y Paula Spencer. Es una lástima que este libro no esté traducido al español, porque libros como "Bésame mucho" pueden, con su *forma* de decir las cosas, hacer un daño que sólo mejor libros podría prevenir o curar. Si no sabes leer en inglés, intenta que alguien que pueda se lea "Bright from the Start" por tí y te lo explique. less

Feel-good book on attachment parenting. The translation has lots of weaknesses / typos though.

Lo que dice es interesante. Su planteamiento no tanto.
