From Library Journal
This book is for first-time fathers who want to be actively involved with their children from birth on, but who are unsure how to go about it. Bonding with the newborn, says psychiatrist Greenberg, can prevent many of the problems in caring for the child, coping with changed family structure, and establishing the connection essential for the child's healthy development. Mixing theory and practical advice and writing in a straightforward manner, Greenberg covers such topics as birth, adjustments at home, acceptance of responsibility, feelings of jealousy, the need for a sense of humor, coping with a crying baby, changing diapers, and children as a celebration of life's continuity. He stresses the importance of communicating feelings between the new parents. Recommended for public libraries serving well-educated populations. Kari D. Anderson, Mary Washington Coll. Lib., Fredericksburg, Va.
