A thought-provoking combination of practical parenting information and scientific analysis, Our Babies, Ourselves is the first book to explore why we raise our children the way we do--and to suggest that we reconsider our culture's traditional views on parenting. In this ground-breaking book, anthropologist Meredith Small reveals her remarkable findings in the new science of ethnopediatrics. Should an infant be encouraged to sleep alone?

The book ends on an optimistic note with the question 'where do we go from here? ' Kathy Archibald.
