The 90-minute Baby Sleep Program by Polly Moore
A sleep researcher with a Ph. D. in neuroscience, Dr. Polly Moore has created a simple, foolproof method based on the basic human rest and activity cycle (BRAC), which occurs every hour and a half.

Silent Nights by Pat Spungin
The idea of your child sleeping peacefully through the night is wonderful. But unfortunately it can be a dream rather than reality. For some parents, getting their child to go to bed at all can be stressful, tiring and infuriating, while the prospect of them sleeping through the night may seem impossible.
