Book reviews

"...explained in detail in eloquent and simple words. A book to be recommended for every couple...amply illustrated by colour diagrams and colour photographs that make the reading much easier."
Sir Sabaratnam Arulkumaran, Professor and Head of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, St. George's University of London

"...welcome this much needed book in a country where the largest number of babies are born every year and with a large number of women and families bedeviled by myths...bossing of elders...and lack of education. It reassures, influences and inspires. For all women, pregnant or wanting to become pregnant, and their husbands, this book is a must-read..."
Dr Shirish Sheth, Past President, International Federation of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists

"In India there has been a vacuum in good childbirth and childcare books that would appeal to the urban and educated couple... it literally holds the hands of the mother-to-be and brings the modern father into actively participating in the wondrous world of childbearing, a sphere that he was kept out of till recently in the Indian social system. This is a great book that is truly a passport to a new world for Indian parents-to-be and a definitive pregnancy guide. It is also a wonderful present to give to a mother-to-be!"
Padmini Natarajan, Eve's Touch
