Guide to Child Health
Written by Michaela Glockler and Wolfgang Goebel
This acclaimed guide to children’s physical, psychological and spiritual development is now available in a third revised edition.
Combining medical advice with issues of upbringing and education, this is a definitive guide for parents. This book outlines the connection between education and healing, with all that this implies for the upbringing and good health
of children. Medical, educational and religious questions often overlap, and in the search for the meaning of illness it is necessary
to study the child as a whole -- as body, soul and spirit. The authors based their theory and practice on 17 years’ experience in the children’s out-patient department of the Herdecke
Hospital in Germany, which is run along anthroposophical lines. The first section covers childhood ailments and home-nursing. The second part looks at the healthy development of the child and how
to create the best conditions for it. The authors go on to examine issues of upbringing and education, and their consequences for later life. Throughout, the book is extremely practical, with example situations of conflict and crisis presented, along with possible
solutions. This new edition also includes medical and health practices in North America, Southern Africa, Australia and New Zealand.

What Babies and Children really need
What Babies and Children Really Need: How Mothers and Fathers can Nuture Children's Health for Growth and Wellbeing
This book represents a milestone in our understanding of child development and what parents can do to provide their
children with the best start in life. The author uses the latest scientific research to demonstrate how a baby's
relationship with its mother has a lasting and fundamental impact. She argues that changes in society over the past 50 years
- such as delayed motherhood, limited uptake of breastfeeding and early return to work - are interfering with the key
developmental milestones essential to success and wellbeing in later life. 'We need a state,' says Sally Goddard Blythe,
'that gives children their parents, and most of all, gives babies their mothers back.'It covers: pregnancy and birth;
child development; child health; and, parenting.It is suitable for parents; teachers and early years educators; health visitors;
paediatricians; special needs teachers; and educational psychologists.It feature articles and reviews from parenting, women's
and education magazines; local, regional and national newspapers; radio interviews and features; and ongoing workshops and
conferences by the author.
