Thank you for this reputable resource; I will continually recommend this book to parents and healthcare professionals alike." --Susan McCreadie, MD, Board Certified Pediatrician, "An absolute MUST READ for medical professionals and motivated laypeople seeking facts and proper guidance, not more political policy masquerading as scientific truth." --Thomas E. Levy, MD, JD, Cardiology and Internal Medicine, "This is an excellent book, which I will certainly recommend to my patients. I believe it is the best single volume on the subject for a general audience. Mayer Eisenstein and Neil Miller deserve our gratitude, first, for the thoroughness of their research, which includes peer-reviewed journal studies, official vaccine adverse event reports (VAERS), firsthand accounts by parents, and concise, easy-to-read summaries of their own. Second, for their sober, balanced, and thoughtful tone--for resisting the temptation to say that all vaccines are bad under all circumstances and should never be given. The message of this book is that there is a serious downside to vaccines being mandated for everyone, which is seldom acknowledged or taken seriously, and that the obvious solution is simply to make them optional, as has long been the case in other developed countries, rather than a sacrament of modern medicine, as they are here in the United States."--Richard Moskowitz, MD, Family Medicine, "As a medical doctor, I learned a lot from this book and wholeheartedly recommend it to both professionals and laypeople.

SynopsisThe current schedule of recommended vaccines is so crowded that doctors give babies several shots during a single office visit -- up to eight vaccines all at one time. Parents -- and doctors -- often forget that vaccines are drugs. How often do we, as adults, take that many drugs at the same time? Would we be more surprised if we did or did not have an adverse reaction? Dr. Mayer Eisenstein has practiced medicine, delivered babies, and provided families with preventive healthcare services for over 35 years. This honest guide to childhood shots was written especially for concerned parents. With Dr. Eisenstein's help, it is now possible to make informed vaccine decisions. In this book you will learn... * The prevalence and seriousness of each disease, including who is most at risk. * How each vaccine is made, with a complete list of ingredients. * Side effects of each vaccine, with a summary of significant studies. * Precautions parents can take to protect their children.
