Editorial Review

The title, Baby Owner’s Manual, suggests the promise and the problem of this cheeky and comprehensive guide written by a pediatrician and his son. First-time parents who are not offended by the observation that “babies, unlike other appliances, lack instruction manuals,” will find a rich resource of facts and advice. The book is divided into seven categories of “operating instructions” including home installation, feeding and power supply, sleep mode, maintenance, development, and safety. Complete with witty schematic drawings and charts, the authors answer hundreds of questions about breastfeeding, bed, bath, and beyond. While most manuals focus on tender loving care, the authors chose to focus on baby as technology. The result is a highly useful–almost too cool–reference book. Because every parent knows that babies are messier and more rewarding than this approach imagines. –Barbara Mackoff
