Summary: 5 Stars
I wish I would have purchased this book before my son was born. This approach is the only thing that worked for us, and I wish I hadn't waited until he was three months old to get it.
The basic idea is that, when you know your child, you can respond to his cues appropriately. This helps your baby feel that his needs are being met, making him happy and well-adjusted. So far, it has made a world of difference with my son; he sleeps better and is a happier child now that I have switched to an attachment parenting style.
The nice thing about this book is that I never felt like it was telling me I had to be a certain way; I don't have to stay home or wear my baby in a sling or let the baby sleep in my bed. I just need to do what helps us both be the best that we can, and that's been incredibly freeing.
If you aren't happy with the other baby books out there, try this one!

Summary of The Baby Book: Everything You Need to Know About Your Baby from Birth to Age Two (Revised and Updated Edition)
"The Baby Book" covers every aspect of infant care - from newborn bonding to toliet training. William Sears, M.D., and Martha Sears, R.N., pediatric specialists and parents of eight children, write clearly and authoritatively from their vast professional and personal experience. Emphasizing the basic needs of babies - eating, sleeping, development, health, and comfort - they provide specific, up-to-date information on issues of concern to every new parent:In their excellent (and hefty) resource guide, The Baby Book, attachment parenting specialists William Sears and Martha Sears have provided new parents with their approach to every aspect of baby care basics, from newborns to toddlers. Attachment parenting is a gentle, reasonable approach to parenting that stresses bonding with your baby, responding to her cues, breastfeeding, "wearing" your baby, and sharing sleep with your child. For those parents who worry about negative effects of this attention, the Sears say, "Spoiling is what happens when you leave something (or some person) alone on the shelf--it spoils."
