When I first started to read this book, I thought it was great; however as I kept reading I realized that this book is written for middle and upper income white Americans with somewhat authoritative advice for parenting. This book contained very little information about nutrition itself and offered lots of advice about how to feed your child and many other topics (e.g. how to get your child sleep through the night) which I found irrelevant. This book definitely suggests one approach fits all technique and sends a strong disapproving message to parents who might not follow the author's desired way. If you are a parent in favor of detachment parenting style, authoritative discipline, cry-it-out, eat processed foods and not breastfeeding, then this book is definitely for you. Otherwise, there are many other better books out there.
