      Verdict: This refreshing addition to the parenting shelf debunks many prevalent myths and is highly recommended for consumer health and public library collections. Background: Drawing on research and the policies of organizations like the American Academy of Pediatrics, pediatrician Adesman (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) rebuts 200 myths relating to the health and development of infants. The author addresses such hot topics as immunizations, breast vs. bottle feeding, sleeping problems, and toilet training; numerous sidebars explore issues ranging from "To bathe or not to bathe? With eczema, that is the question" to "How much TV should a child watch?"-coverage that makes this an up-to-date and well-rounded resource.-Elizabeth J. Eastwood, Los Alamos Cty. Lib. Syst., NM
