SynopsisWhen you're considering what vaccinations are right for your child and when to administer them, there's a lot to think about. With twelve separate vaccines on the standard vaccination schedule, you have twelve separate choices to make. And with so much conflicting information available today, these decisions can seem overwhelming. Dr. Bob Sears offers help. In this first-ever, authoritative, open-minded guide to childhood vaccinations, he provides an in-depth look at each disease/vaccine pair and covers everything you need to know, including; how common or rare, as well as how serious, each disease is, how each vaccine is made and what its ingredients are, which ingredients are potentially controversial, what each vaccine's side effects might be and how likely they are to occur, how to recognize, treat, and prevent vaccine side effects, which brands and types of vaccines are safest, how to tailor your child's shot schedule to minimize risks and satisfy state requirements, what precautions unvaccinated children should take to stay healthy. In a clear, accessible tone. Dr. Sears lays out the reasons both for and against administering each vaccine and provides the essential tools for making informed decisions about your child's health. Book jacket., With the spate of publicity surrounding the possible health risks posed by childhood immunization, parents are no longer simply following doctor's orders and automatically having their children vaccinated. Instead, they are asking questions. The problem is the search for answers only leads parents to conflicting, one-sided information: doctors claim that parents are endangering their child's life if they refuse shots, while radical vaccine opponents claim parents are endangering their child's life if they accept shots. With THE VACCINE BOOK, parents finally have one, fair, impartial, fact-based resource they can turn to for answers. Each chapter is devoted to a disease/vaccine pair and offer a comprehensive discussion of what the disease is, how common or rare it is, how serious or harmless it is, the ingredients of the vaccine, and any possible side effects from the vaccine. Ultimately, parents will have to make their own informed decisions as Dr. Bob Sears is neither pro-vaccine nor anti-vaccine. But THE VACCINE BOOK will provide exactly the information parents want and need as they make their way through the vaccination maze.

A must read for new parents
A lot of people said that this was an anti-vaccine book but that is not true. He explains all of the vaccines which ones are the safest etc. for example there are several brands of Hib and DtaP some have up to 3 times the aluminum than the others. Why does that make a difference? Read the book.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Very Helpful
My husband and I were completely overwhelmed by all of the choices we have to make for our soon to be arriving baby girl. Especially choices about vaccines. We felt like we didn't know anything and everyone has an opinion on the subject. It was all really confusing. I bought this book on a recommendation from a family member whose child raising choices I trust completely. My husband and I sat down and read this book together, and in a couple of short days, we had made what seemed like 20 difficult decisions rather easily. I am so grateful for this book, it really helped take a lot of stress and confusion out of the process of becoming a new mom. I would highly recommend that every parent read this book before deciding what to do as far as vaccines are concerned.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

By reading this book, I feel educated on how to best decide what vaccines and when I would give them to my daughter. Informative and helpful on every aspect of vaccines- who, what, why, where and when.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
