The POCKET GUIDE TO THE BREASTFEEDING ANSWER BOOK is a necessity for anyone who works in the field of lactation. The information is up-to-date, in-depth, and easy to access, making it practical for quick reference, while its broad scope makes it a complete resource. When La Leche League International introduced THE BREASTFEEDING ANSWER BOOK IN 1991, breastfeeding counselors worldwide welcomed it as the most complete and comprehensive guide to helping mothers find answers to their breastfeeding questions.
