.The Vaccine Book: Making the Right Decision for Your Child (Sears Parenting Library)

by: Robert Sears

October 22, 2007
This is a great book because it is neither for vaccines nor against them-it just presents as much information as possible and leads the reader to his or her own conclusion. Now I feel a bit educated on the issue when my son's pediatrician presents his "convincing" side of the story (pro- all vaccines).

The most helpful parts of the book are Dr. Sear's Selective & Alternative vaccine schedules. This informs parents of their options besides (1) getting all vaccines on the AAP's schedule, or (2) declining all vaccines.

.The Baby Book: Everything You Need to Know About Your Baby from Birth to Age Two (Revised and Updated Edition)

by: William Sears, Martha Sears, Robert Sears, James Sears

2003-03
I found this book at a baby store in town and decided to try and buy it cheaper on the internet, which I did. As I read through it in the store I realized that it had a lot of great info pertaining to babies, not just newborns either, it goes up to two years of age and thoroughly detailed everything from health problems that could arise to parenting issues one might struggle with (ie. sleeping arraingments). The only thing that you might not like is his personal opinion on parenting. While he is an excellent doctor you might not agree with everything he has to say.

.Father's First Steps: 25 Things Every New Dad Should Know

by: Robert W. Sears, James M. Sears

June 06, 2006
My husband was a little leery of sitting through reading the "typical" baby books together. But, he really liked the approach these authors took - they pride themselves on trying to be funny, but the information is very valuable. We like the "hands-on" approach they recommend with newborns, and my husband has even marked pages for future reference, especially regarding the hospital stay and the importance of personal contact. He's already recommended this to friends, so I guess it goes without saying that "Yes, we'd recommend this to others." We're posting this review as we put their next book in our shopping cart.

.The Baby Sleep Book: The Complete Guide to a Good Night's Rest for the Whole Family (Sears Parenting Library)

by: William Sears, Martha Sears, Robert Sears, James Sears

October 26, 2005
I have a 22 month old that still does not sleep through the night, but we get a restful night sleep... and this book helped us a lot, it gave us tips, on how to improve our sleep time. And I know that I wont ever will sleep same as I did before I was a mom, and I never expected to do it. I was only able to EBF her for a year, but we co-sleep, and find this sleep arrangement to be the best of all. My husband can't be with her during the day, but they bond at night, during their sleep. They do grow up fast, so I'm all for enjoying every single minute I have with her... I know that eventually she is going to ask to sleep on her own bed, but we are not looking forward to that day.
Many people ask about sex life while co-sleeping, and I can only ... Read More:

.The Prosperity Bible: The Greatest Writings of All Time On The Secrets To Wealth And Prosperity

by: Napoleon Hill, Wallace D. Wattles, James Allen, P. T. Barnum, Benjamin Franklin, Ernest Holmes, Charles F. Haanel, Robert Collier, Florence Scovel Shinn, Elbert Hubbard, Russell Conwell, Charles Fillmore, Ralph Waldo Trine, William Walker Atkinson, F. W. Sears

It's always a pleasant experience and privilege to be able to hitchhike on someone else's experience. For example: I have all of Robert Collier's books. However, this resource contains the original 1926 version of The Secret of The Ages and is so rich in revelation that you simply lay the book down after reading from it and ponder, chew and muse upon what you've just read.

I could go on and on. Simply do yourself a tremendous favor and acquire this timeless resource.

May God bless the person who took the time and initiative to compile this volume of spiritual wealth.

.The Premature Baby Book: Everything You Need to Know About Your Premature Baby from Birth to Age One (Sears, William, Sears Parenting Library.)

by: William Sears, Robert Sears, James Sears, Martha Sears

September 21, 2004
This is one of the best books I read while looking to learn more about my premature son and his experience in NICU. During such a stressful time, I believe this book was a manageable resource to quickly educate myself on what to expect. I was on bedrest prior to delivery and began reading it then. I finished reading it during my son's NICU stay, but still go back to review topics/issues related to raising a premature baby (particularly the breastfeeding information). I HIGHLY recommend this book for parents and loved ones of premature babies.

.Oxford Handbook of Political Psychology (Oxford Handbooks)

from: Oxford University Press, USA

July 31, 2003
Up to now I perused through the pages and read on some hot topics that are discussed in the field of political psychology today.
My intention, as a Masters student in Social Psychology, is to see if this book serves as a good basis for a possible Ph.D later on, as the university in the Netherlands where I'm currently studying does not present a similar course. This well written book has served as a good source of inspiration on which one would want to delve further in this interesting field. If there is anyone out there with similar interests, I would strongly advise you to get hold of this book. On the surface it looks intimidating and hard to wrestle through, but is written very comprehensively and is an easy and (very) intersting read.
