ABOUT THE
BOOK
A groundbreaking book on childrearing which will do for the
21st century what Dr Spock and Dr Penny Leach did for the
latter part of the 20th century.
Book includes month-by-month information for both parents;
gives expert medical and complementary advice with an easy
reference A-Z health guide; follows your baby's early
physical, emotional and cognitive development; gives
step-by-step advice on baby care and enables you to take an
active role in pregnancy, birth and parenting.
Written by the one of the world's leading obstetricians,
Birth and Beyond takes a totally fresh look at pregnancy,
birth and parenting. It covers the nine months of pregnancy
and the first nine months of life, charting the
extraordinary journey from both the baby's and the parents'
points of view.
Covering everything from development in the womb and
different approaches to labour, to breastfeeding, crying
and baby massage, it is both a practical handbook and a
stimulating exploration of this period of enormous
transition. Taking a holistic approach, Dr. Gordon
advocates integrated health care, i.e. both conventional
and complementary therapies. Working with consultants in
obstetrics, paediatrics, midwifery, child psychology,
nutrition, exercise and complementary care, he combines
up-to-date medical knowledge with traditional wisdom and
practical advice.
