Revised, updated, and expanded to reflect the latest thinking and information on children's health issues, Smart Medicine for a Healthier Child enables parents to combine the best of conventional and alternative approaches. This unique text on children's health is written by a physician, a naturopath, and a registered nurse. Assuming that conventional medicine and alternative therapies can complement each other, they offer choices in healthcare. Their book contains three sections. The first offers an overview of the history, basic techniques, and uses of conventional medicine, homeopathy, acupressure, diet, and nutrition. It also includes information on choosing and working with health professionals, pregnancy, newborn care, and home safety. The second section is an alphabetical listing of childhood health problems with explanations and specific treatment approaches. Conditions requiring emergency care are highlighted and those needing conventional care, such as appendicitis, are indicated. Part 3 contains illustrated instructions for applying the treatments suggested in Part 2. The authors encourage parents to take first aid and childcare classes to become effective partners in their children's health maintenance. A glossary, bibliography, and lists of hotlines, resource organizations, and suppliers of alternative health products complete the book. Smart Medicine for a Healthier Child is an outstanding resource; highly recommended for all collections.
