Milk, Money, and Madness by Naomi Baumslag and Dia L. Michels
By reviewing the history, culture, biology, and politics of breastfeeding, Milk, Money, and Madness gives the reader a more complete understanding of the uniqueness of breastfeeding. Among the main points addressed are how U.S. supports and encourages bottle-feeding by spending over $500 million each year to provide 37% of the infants in the U.S. with free formula; and how a product created to help sick children and foundlings was transformed into a powerful international industry with revenues of $22 million a day. Milk, Money, and Madness provides parents and health professionals with the information they need to fully appreciate and advise about this critical life choice.
