    <body><![CDATA[I really appreciated the info in this book about how to handle most basic childhood illnesses but also how to tell when it really is serious and medical care is needed.  It definitely comes from the perspective of natural health care, recommends against immunizing in most cases, etc. Right up my all...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/33992464">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The original doctor-complains-about-mainstream-medicine book for me.  He's quite a character.  He even advocates the old fashioned spoonful of brandy for kids with a cold.  But the premise that we turn to medicine too often and can take care of much of our family's health on our own, with simple rem...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/17207576">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Awesome book, though I really wish I had an updated version. I love his slant toward not using medicine unless it's REALLY needed, and trying other things (like rest and good nutrition!) first. But I don't feel confident following all his advice without seeing what the literature says now, just beca...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/26087577">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This books includes a lot of easy-to-read information for how to deal with most common childhood problems without running to the doctor for every single thing.  It's been very helpful for me, so that I don't overreact to simple problems, but also recognize instances that do need assistance.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Doctors are not god.  This book does a terrific job of reassuring parents that they (SHOULD) know their children at least as well as any medical professional. Love this book. I think it's out of print. It's on my list of books to buy, someday when I have money!]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is a great reference for any parent who doesn't want to over medicate their child. There are honest descriptions of how to react and treat a fever (which the author says mostly is done for the peace of mind of the parent) to how to treat whooping cough. ]]></body>
