Every Parent Must Have this Book

Finally, a book has been written that gives the parent all the information they need about vaccinations with no bias opinion. After pouring over all the vaccine package inserts and weighing the studies, ingredients, and likelihood of my child contracting the disease, this long overdue book has simplified my life by answering every question I could possibly have. I only wish it had been written sooner before I vaccinated my other children. Any parent who has wrestled with vaccinating their children will appreciate Dr. Sears' well written book. The most important vaccine ingredient addressed in this book was not mercury, but rather aluminum. Our children are exposed to a toxic amount with the current vaccination schedule. Parents need to be informed of what is being injected into their children. Bottom line: read this book before you vaccinate any further.

Straight-forward. Easy to read and understand.

This book offers a straight-forward, comprehensive look at each of the vaccines given to children of all ages. It is the best vaccine reference I have found that combines both sides of the argument. It gives you very sound and resonable information for making vaccine decisions. I am a person who believes that modern and wholistic medicine each have their place and should work hand-in-hand and not against each other. This book made perfect sense for me. It also offers an alternative schedule for vaccines that may put some common fears to rest. Highly reccomend.

AWESOME READ!!!

I'm somewhat of a naturalist when it comes to medications, so when my daughter was born, thoughts of vaccinating her were scary to me. This book was recommended to me and I'm so glad I purchased it. Not only does Dr. Bob give you the facts about the diseases and their severity or lack there of, but he discusses the ingredients of the vaccines and how they are made. He gives his opinions, but leaves the decision to vaccinate or not completely up to the reader. I also like that he gives an alternative vaccination schedule so your child doesn't have to receive so many injections of chemicals all at one time. If you're on the fence about vaccinating, I would highly recommend this book. I doubt you'll regret it.

very informative

This book gives great insight to the increasing concerns surrounding vaccines today. It is very clear and logical.

Great info, BUT.....

First off, this is NOT the same Dr. Sears who wrote the Baby Book; it's his son who is also a pediatrician. Anyway, the book is very informative and a great resource to have since it breaks down all the vaccines into sections and discusses ingredients, risks & side effects, etc. The main thing I didn't like about this book was that Dr. Sears basically concludes that all the vaccines are necessary and should be given. I'm not expecting him to say that vaccines aren't necessary - some are - but his arguments are far from cogent. He basically concludes that since it's for the good of society that parents should give their children the vaccinations. This seems contradictory to me as he also states the downfalls of many of the vaccines. For instance, he exerts how little research there is on HPV vaccines and that the vaccines don't guard against all types of HPV and it's not known how long the vaccinations last, but then says that it's pretty safe to give and should be given.

I would have also liked to have seen some mention made of exactly why the vaccines are on the CDC schedule - some are on there as a result of heavy lobbying on the part of pharmaceutical companies. Perhaps that wasn't the point of the book, but then just give us the facts and cut out all the personal recommendations. Or if you're giving the recommendations, then at least give all the facts.

Overall, I would recommend this as a resource since it's great to have all the info in one book, but I'd say take his recommendations with a grain of salt and do your own research about why certain vaccines should and shouldn't be given.
