I am not a parent, and picked up this book only because I was curious about attachment parenting. I saw a segment on one of the morning talk shows that Mayim Bialik (Amy Farrah Fowler on BBT) uses AP, and gave a brief overview on what is can entail. One comment made was that she never used diapers on her second child. EVER. I was intrigued.

More so, I was fascinated by the ideas in the book. In it she discusses what her family does, and promotes the idea that AP in and of itself is a theory and that not all attachment parents follow the exact same guidelines.

Some of the things that they do involve co-sleeping with both of their children, "potty training" her newborns, and using her mother instincts before going to the doctor.

It's not a life-changing book, and it does go into the science and history of mammal behaviors, but she does a good job at presenting her parenting ideals.

I would recommend this book if you are interested or fascinated by the idea of attachment parenting. Be warned though, she does talk about a few hot topics, including why she does not vaccinate her children.
