Written on July 10, 2008 Summary: About time! As a biologist, and a new mom in 2007, I had really struggled trying to get clear and dependable (and scientifically based) answers to my questions about vaccines. I wish this book was available when I was first researching the issue! The only thing I could find were either anti-vaccine books, which were slightly researched opinions at best, or just the strait AAP recommendations - no questions asked. This book finally bridged the gap. Dr. Sears really researched the issue, and this book basically summarizes all the existing research on all the questions I had. It is honest when there isn't a clear answer, and he provides well thought out alternative vaccination schedules. I've read it about 3x now, and feel I can finally make well informed choices for my family. Written on July 7, 2008 Summary: So Well Written & Concise A fantastic book that takes all the research and facts and makes educated recommendations. If you did all of this on your own, it would take weeks to distill into anything useful. The straightforward vaccine schedule recommendations are so helpful for busy parents! Written on July 7, 2008 Summary: Insightful Book Being an information junkie, this book is like the Holy Grail of vaccine data. I love the way Dr. Sears gives both sides of the never-ending immunization debate. He illustrates the pros and cons of each vaccination, and remains relatively unbiased. He provides the reader with statistics, ingredients, methods of production, and personal experience with the vaccines. I feel the greatest aspect of this book is the alternative vaccination schedule he provides and the reasoning behind it. It makes sense. When I first spoke to my (beloved) pediatrician about the alternative vaccination schedule laid out by Dr. Sears in the book, I expected at least some resistance. Instead I was met with a whole-hearted enthusiasm that I had read The Vaccine Book and none of the other publications available. My son's doctor stated that he feels Dr. Sears has the most valid, well-rounded argument about the possible drawbacks of vaccines but tempers it with an argument for the necessity of the immunizations. I now have the confidence to make an informed decision for the welfare of my child. My only disappointment is that this book was not published two years prior when my daughter went through the majority of her vaccinations. Kudos to Dr. Sears! Written on July 2, 2008 Summary: Fantastic Must Have A must have book. Easy to read through and reference over and over again. Clearly lays out all of the pros and cons of which vaccine. A very matter of fact book that simply gives you all of the information you need to make the decisions that you, as a parent, feel most comfortable about. We will be referencing this book for years. Written on July 2, 2008 Summary: Walks fine line between vaccine advocacy and informed consent It's sufficiently difficult to ask good questions during the rushed doctor visits so it was wonderful to have a book ask (and answer) important questions that hadn't even crossed my mind. In fact, after I had expressed some concern at the 2 month visit, my pediatrician asked for a schedule and well... duh... I thought she'd have a few alternative schedules for me to choose from... NOT. Before opening this book, I had already pulled a schedule together based upon CDC info, some Internet-based research, and our plans for the little one. Well, let's say that there was plenty of new data to add to my decision matrix and plenty of revisions resulted. Some of my conclusions based on the book's data differed from those of Dr. Bob but that is because I have different priorities from those assumed by Dr. Bob (and his assumptions are stated very clearly). Then again, the separation of fact from opinion in this book is what makes it so useful for a parent who wants to make a customized schedule. I've been through all the sections once now and certain sections multiple times (as the cross-referencing is very thorough). Dr. Bob really makes you think things through from multiple perspectives and I'm very happy not only with the changes I made but I'm also much more satisfied with many of the decisions I had made beforehand on much less information. |
