Product Description:
When vaccines first became available, they were considered a godsend-parents suddenly had a way to keep their children safe from devestating diseases like small pox and polio. Today, however, we may be over-vaccinating our children-sometimes with alarming repercussions. Every year some children suffer consequences as a result of vaccinations, and one school of thought believes that the vaccine used to prevent measles, mumps and rubella may be related to the rapid rise in autism (up 300% in the past 10 years). While most doctors continue to routinely recommend vaccinations, parents have good reasons to be concerned about rare but potentially associated consequences. In this book Dr. Stephanie Cave explains vaccinations-the pros and the cons. With detailed facts about each vaccination, as well as regulations and laws, this book provides easily understandable information to help parents make a knowledgeable, responsible choice about vaccinating their children.

- Out of Date
This book is so out of date that I don't think any pediatricians use the vaccines or techniques ( such as stacking vaccines) they warn you about. All this book did was scare me. I did learn a few things about vaccines and were to get the latest information. Overall not worth the time and the scare.

- Okay
This book is a little out dated. New information and new vaccines are out and being given since this book has been out. Overall, this book is okay. I think it needs to be updated.

Rating: - This was a great research starter for me
I think the toughest part in reading books on vaccination is that you can find a book to support ANY conclusion that you have already made.But what about those of us who are (were) genuinely uncertain about what we plan to do with our children?I borrowed this book from a friend when I was pregnant and I highly recommend it as a place to start.Other reviewers are correct -- she is not vehemently anti-vaccination OR pro-vaccination.I appreciated the middle of the road approach, and since I can ...
