Praise for The Vaccine-Friendly Plan
"Finally, a book about vaccines that respects parents! If you choose only one book to read on the topic, read The Vaccine-Friendly Plan. This impeccably researched, well-balanced book puts you in the driver's seat and empowers you to make conscientious vaccine decisions for your family."-Peggy O'Mara, editor and publisher, Mothering Magazine
"Sure to appeal to readers of all kinds as a friendly, no-nonsense book that cuts through the rhetoric surrounding vaccines. It offers validation to those who avoid some or all, while offering those who do want to vaccinate help on how to do so safely. This is a great book for anyone with children in their lives."-Natural Mother
"A valuable, science-supported guide to optimizing your child's health while you navigate through complex choices in a toxic, challenging world."-Martha Herbert, M.D., Ph.D., Harvard Medical School
"An impressively researched guide, this important book is essential reading for parents. With clear and practical advice for shielding children from harmful toxins, it will compel us all to think differently about how to protect health."-Jay Gordon, M.D., FAAP
"Rather than a one-size-fits-all vaccine strategy, the authors suggest thoughtful, individualized decisions based on research and collaboration between parents and clinicians-a plan to optimize a child's immune system and minimize any risks."-Elizabeth Mumper, M.D., founder and CEO, The Rimland Center for Integrative Pediatrics
"This well-written and thought-provoking book will encourage parents to think through decisions-such as food choices and the timing of vaccines-that affect the well-being of their children. In a world where children's immune systems are increasingly challenged, this is a timely addition to the literature."-Harriet Lerner, Ph.D., bestselling author of The Dance of Anger and The Mother Dance
