OK: I received corrected info on Lisa Spiegel backlist. I googled her and found ONLY her own website. There she provides personal anecdotes, testimonials to her advice and a blog on various aspects of baby-rearing.
NOTHING SCIENTIFIC, NOTHING ACADEMIC, NOTHING WITH ANY EVIDENCE OTHER THAN ANECDOTE TO SUPPORT IT. Ok, so I went to the scientific side of a search, and I can't believe I just wasted an hour on this, but I wanted to put closure on this avenue of information. I searched academic search premier, psychinfo and eric. I FOUND NOTHING published at all, in any journal, magazine, etc. (Eric will often drift from science). NOTHING. So, whatever she has to say, it's her opinion. I have mine. Oh, the clincher is that if you want to see more than the first page of her information on baby issues you have to sign up and join the website--the benefits of which include: *Share your MomSense by asking and answering questions in MomAnswers *Share photos and win daily prizes in the ClubMom Scrapbook *Indulge daily in over 30 MomBlogs *Sign up for the newsletters and stay plugged in with other moms I AM SO SICK AND TIRED OF THESE PEOPLE GETTING ALL THE MEDIA ATTENTION (AND MONEY!!!!!!!!!) BY PROMOTING PABLUM THAT PROBABLY DOESN'T WORK FOR MOST PEOPLE AND ONLY MAKES WOMEN FOR WHOM IT DOESN'T WORK FEEL BAD ABOUT THEMSELVES AS "BAD MOMS" (or bad whatevers, in this case it happens to be about moms, but this psychobabble is pervasive. Are we losing all the battles AND the war? Bottom Line: Forget about anything she has to say, no matter her high profile in the media.
