Five centuries of gardening. The gardens & parks of Hampton Court Palace .......2006-08-28
A well organised and attractively produced book giving a scholarly account of the history of these magnificent and much loved Gardens. Hampton Court Palace is the finest of English Renaissance gardens and of great importance to any student of horticulture and garden or landscape history.
The avenues and the venerable ancient trees of the parks along with the even older pruned and pleached trees of the formal gardens are among the treasures of the gardens. Along with the newly restored privy garden, the statuary and the architecture these are well illustrated with photos and drawings ancient and modern
A STUNNING JOURNAL OF GARDENS AND PARKS.......2005-07-17
Todd Longstaffe-Gowan, Gardens Adviser to Hampton Court Palace and Vice Chairman of the London Historic Parks and Gardens Trust, and photographer Vivian Russell have combined their considerable talents to offer readers, most especially garden enthusiasts, a stunning journal of the gardens and parks at Hampton Court Palace.
Not only is Hampton Court an historic landscape covering 2,000 acres, bounded on its south and east sides by the River Thames, it is also a site of great antiquity indicating that there were settlements in the site dating back to the Bronze Age. However the estate began to form very much as it is seen today in 1086. It was in 1514 that Hampton Court was leased by Cardinal Wolsey, until he became persona non grata at court and was forced to leave by Henry VIII.
As soon as the estate was under his care Henry began a 20 year building, the like of which had not been seen. Since that time various royals have left their marks upon the estate as it has been used as a guest house. Queen Victoria declared that the palace "should be thrown open to all her subjects without restriction, and without fee or gratuity of any kind.." While this order was not deemed wise by many, the palace did become a popular vacation resort.
The gardens were neglected during World War I, but by 1919 improvements were being overseen by a committee of horticultural and landscape garden experts. Since the early 1990s major restoration work has taken place within the palace which has been coordinated with landscape improvements. Today, the estate stands as a "great emblem and monument of English history," and attracts over a million visitors every year.
Thanks to Longstaffe-Gowan and Russell for making it also available to armchair travelers.

Book Description
This one-of-a-kind guide to balancing motherhood and work is based on actual journals kept by a group of IBM women during their visits to the company's employee lactation room.
It all began when IBM manager Cate Colburn-Smith sat down in the company's employee lactation room, shed a few silent tears, and wrote the following on a paper towel: I'm a new mom and today is my first day back at work. Is anyone else using this room?
Right away women responded, and the paper towel was eventually replaced by a series of notebooks, in which women offered one another advice and support on juggling work and a newborn. Based on the original notebooks, The Milk Memos is a heartwarming, encouraging (and often hilarious!) guide to working motherhood.
It's one of the most existential moments any woman will face: sitting in a small room tucked away in the bowels of your company, pumping breast milk for a child so close to your heart-yet, at that moment, so far away. The Milk Memos records the voices of mothers who, while struggling with the difficulties of blending their two lives, prove that women don't have to choose between work and family. Their thoughts on how it can be done will inspire women everywhere. This invaluable book weaves the actual Milk Memos journal entries with information-packed sections on such topics of great concern to working moms as:
- finding a private place to pump breast milk at work and establishing a routine that you can maintain despite your busy workday;
- establishing the right daycare solution;
- getting a decent night's sleep with a new baby so that you can shine (or at least glimmer!) during business hours; and
- negotiating flextime, part-time, or a job share with an employer.
The ultimate gift for any new mom who will soon return to work, The Milk Memos is destined to become a classic on the parenting shelf.
Customer Reviews:
Really hit home!!.......2007-09-28
I really can't say enough good things about this book. As a breastfeeding mom who just returned to work a few days ago, this book was a godsend. I've never read a book that was so informative, touching, and hilarious rolled all into one. It helped me to be prepared for the difficulties of working and pumping that I would face, and helped me to get organized enough to make sure I had everything I needed to make working and breastfeeding a success. It EVEN gave me the courage and information needed to request (and receive!) a place to pump privately at my workplace when I had previously thought that I was going to be resigned to pumping in the women's bathroom. I also appreciated the book's non-judgemental tone: it presented breastfeeding as the best-possible solution for feeding our babies but it did not scoff at those women who find themselves struggling with it (as many of us have) or not interested in doing it long-term.
A must read for nursing moms .......2007-07-30
Like other reviews says, it's an absolute must read for nursing moms. When I read it I felt as if I were reading my own life/feelings. The book will make you smile, laugh, and cry.
Milk Moms Unite!.......2007-07-09
I am a working, milking mom. I read the Milk Memos while pumping at work and love it. This book has made me laugh out loud and brought tears to my eyes. It puts into words so much of what I (and other new moms I imagine) are feeling once we return to work after maternity leave. I read the book every day while pumping and feel that I am part of the milk club! The book is full of encouragement for pumping moms struggling to balance the demands of their babies, bosses and [...]!
A Must Buy! It's like a Girlfriend's Guide to breastfeeding while working........2007-06-15
I'm an attorney who nursed my first child for 2 years. Now I'm nursing a second. This book captures dead on the trials and tribulations of working while nursing. Pumping while on business trips, leaking milk onto your blouse, nursing while on a conference call -- it's all in there! I'm buying it for all of my pregnant working moms.
A must for all new moms.......2007-05-25
This is a must gift for all new moms. Fantastic.
Product Description
If you are a breastfeeding mother, then you probably have the same questions that most new mothers have: when is the right time to wean, and what is the best way to go about it? The new, revised and updated edition of The Nursing Mother's Guide to Weaning has the answers. Experts say that breastfeeding success depends on getting off to a good start, and much of this book is devoted to advice for resolving breastfeeding difficulties that often lead to early weaning. This book also explores the hygienic, nutritional, and emotional concerns that make weaning from the breast such an important and often difficult transition. Best-selling author and lactation expert Kathleen Huggins and co-author Linda Ziedrich make it easier than ever for you to bottle-feed safely, introduce solids gradually, and find new ways to keep a growing child secure and happy during and after weaning.
Customer Reviews:
Why not to wean.......2007-06-02
I also loved the Nursing Mothers Companion and am very pro-breastfeeding, but I am sad to say that this book is not what it purports to be. As pointed out in other reviews, much more time is spent telling mothers why they shouldn't wean than how they might wean. A great disappointment.
A Disappointment.......2007-05-30
I absolutely love the Nursing Mother's Companion and have used it as a reference on and off since my son was born a year and a half ago. I was hoping that the Guide to Weaning would offer me some innovative tools or helpful exercises to better understand how and when to wean my son. Instead, it seemed like most of the chapter on toddlers (1-2 years) was a cheerleading session for strategies of how to continue nursing, with a short section on ideas for how to wean at the end. I really didn't get any new information here - I think that most moms who decide to prolong breastfeeding have already had to figure out how to manage where and when it's okay for the baby to nurse; it's the final step of actually weaning that can be difficult to tackle. In all, I didn't find the book to be particularly supportive of my choice to begin weaning my son or to offer any concrete suggestions beyond common sense and advice that's easily available from other moms who have been there before.
The title of this book should be "why you shouldn't wean your child".......2007-04-24
First of all, let me just say that I am pro breastfeeding, but I also believe that it is a personal choice that every mother must make for themselves. So is weaning. I support nursing mothers whether they do it for 2 weeks or 2 years. My daughter is 9 months old and has always been breastfed. She never would take a bottle and doesn't like formula, even in a cup. I got this book because my plan is to wean my daughter at one year and I was looking for some practical advice. Well, I didn't find it in this book. The chapters are grouped by the child's age when you plan to wean. 90% of each chapter focuses on the reasons you may decide to wean at that age and why those reasons are not valid ones. The book basically shoots down every scenario for weaning your child. The sections on "how to" wean focus on how ineffective most of them are. This is not a book that will give you support and advice on weaning. It does not acknowledge and accept the fact that breastfeeding until your child is in preschool is just not the right choice for everyone. I am proud of the fact that I have breastfed this long but the decision to wean is something that I alone (taking my daughter's needs into consideration) will decide. If you are looking for a book to talk you out of weaning then this is the book for you.

Customer Reviews:
Great for a first time mom!.......2007-06-13
I absolutely could not have lived without this book when I was nursing my son. I read the entire book before he was born, and then used the book as a reference in the hospital and after we returned home. Frequently I would find myself supporting my son with one arm, and holding this book in the other.
This book remained on my nightstand for almost a year! I highly recommend this book for anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding their child. If you're interested in learning more from Amy Spangler - check out her website [..] - it's great, too!
Wonderful resource for any new mom.......2007-06-08
It doesn't matter if you are a first time mother or if you are a mom of your third baby...you will use this book!!! There are always questions about breastfeeding and sometimes you need answers at times of the day (or night) when you can't call someone. Amy's book is perfect at these times...very easy to reference and so helpful. I love it and use it constantly!
Awesome Guide and Reference Book for Breastfeeding.......2007-04-06
This is the best reference book for any nursing mom. I have used it constantly while nursing my son. The chapters are concise and complete--something a mother up at 2am with questions and a screaming newborn needs. The drawings were very helpful in trying to figure out how to position the baby; the chapter for fathers provided a thorough explaination about their part in the breastfeeding relationship; and the chapters on milk expression and storage give exact information that a busy mom needs to read. The great part about the book is that if you only have time to read what you need, you can find it easily and get the information. It's a book that I couldn't have done without.
Fantastic for new and not-so-new nursing moms.......2007-04-04
Amy Spangler's (previous and now updated) book remained on my nightstand for 4 years straight, as I had 3 children in a span of 4 years. She covers all breastfeeding issues one can think of, addressing "normal" issues, as well as troubleshooting numerous different problems. I found her book to be extremely helpful for my one child where I had no nursing difficulties, as well as for my 2nd child with whom I had some nursing difficulties, and most importantly for my third child with whom I had significant nursing problems. Thanks in large part to Amy's book, I had an extremely rewarding nursing relationship with all 3 of my children. As an Associate Professor of Psychology with extensive clinical research publishing experience, I can also add that her book is very well-written and an invaluable resource for anyone embarking on nursing their baby.

Amy Spangler's Breastfeeding-A Parent's Guide.......2005-09-30
The book was in perfect condition. I appreciate the honesty and good service.
Informative but Repetitive.......2004-08-16
I received this book when I took a breastfeeding class at my birth hospital. I found it to be clear and concise, friendly and easy-to-understand, but quite repetitive. It seems that each chapter contains the same (useful) information, just in a different order... sometimes exact phrases are repeated. Beyond that, the book is a short, easy read with practical information on everything from getting started to storing pumped milk.
Best Breastfeeding Book/Reference.......2003-05-08
I actually got this book free from a Breastfeeding class I took, and have found it to be the most easy to use/read book - especially compared to the other 2 books I actually bought. I feel it is straightforward with facts instead of opinions, and a great reference for when I had some breastfeeding problems and concerns.
One thing not mentioned, and I haven't seen it any other books, is how the number of feedings on average reduces after the first month - and 8 feedings isn't always required.
Your best buddy while breastfeeding!.......2002-07-02
I was given this book at the hospital while taking a breastfeeding class. Even though I felt that I knew it all, when it came to actually breastfeeding my daughter I was clueless and in tears for the first week. This book provided me with the info I needed to keep on breastfeeding. I successfully breastfed for 8 months!
Clear no nonsense answers to your questions.......2001-05-12
I am a new (expectant) Mom with no experience breastfeeding. This book had the answers I was looking for with simple easy to understand pictures. This book answered questions for me I had posed to my OB/GYN but, for some reason, he couldn't communicate the answers to me in as concise a fashion as this book! I think this book is a wonderful resource. It's a fairly quick read and seems to address all the questions/problems you may face while breastfeeding.

Book Description
There are many reasons women bottlefeed their child. Some are health-related. Some are driven by other needs. Yet, the decision not to breastfeed is very difficult to make. Not only do mothers have to deal with their own emotions, but society has stigmatized those who bottlefeed. Now, in this practical book you will find the answers that will help you make the best choice for you and your child.
Written by a mother of two,
When Breastfeeding Is Not an Option will help you make an informed, personal decision. It will give you information in a cool and calm manner, far from the noise of superstition, political correctness, and unscientific mythology. Inside, you'll find insights from a number of experts and personal stories from mothers who have been there—information that you won't find anywhere else, including:
• Breast or Bottle: Which Is Best for You?
A Quiz for Expectant Mothers
• A cost and nutrition comparison of formula brands
• How to choose the right bottles and nipples
• Tips about the proper storage, transportation, and heating and cooling of formula
• The ups and downs of juggling employment and infant feeding
• How to go about weaning your child
• And much more
When Breastfeeding Is Not an Option is a supportive and reassuring guide to making a well-informed decision about how to feed your infant.

Customer Reviews:
EXCELLENT!!!!!!.......2005-06-11
This book is a wonderful resource for mothers who choose to formula feed their babies. It is a breath of fresh air in a country where there is virtually no support network for bottlefeeding moms and dads...and who are constantly harrassed by militant lactivists...such as the ones who have written negative reviews about this book. My question is this....If you are breastfeeding....why on earth did you read this book? It was obviously not written for you.....or are you just in a dogmatic haze debasing this literature without having read it just to prove your point? You don't see bottlefeeders writing bad reviews about books on breasfeeding do you? Stop being so angry and militant and let us make our choices without guilt. It is because of women like this that a book such as Peggy Robin's had to be written. Read it and you will see that it is far from "angry". And it helps you see that yes, you can have a healthy, thriving, intelligent child regardless of whether you use breastmilk or formula.
A book based on guilt doth not a good book make.......2005-06-03
It is a rather curious thing that Ms. Robin has changed the title of her book from "Bottlefeeding Without Guilt" to its current incarnation of "When Breastfeeding Is Not An Option." Very curious indeed, especially since the entire book itself is based around feelings of guilt.
The conception of this book was a damned cunning idea.
Very astutely, Ms. Robin has picked up on the fact that sensationalism and wild exaggeration sells. Sensationalism *especially* sells when it involves justifying the feelings of those would-be buyers who can read this book and say, "See? I'm not the Devil Incarnate after all! Finally, somebody understands me and is telling me that not only am I not at fault for bottlefeeding, but those horrible women who breastfeed and were mean to me are all members of a cult!"
Nobody ever said that logic sells.
In a market-led society where authors must struggle to come up with ever more titillating ideas, each one outdoing the previous, this author is proof positive that the majority of women are Sensors/Feelers on the Keirsey Temperament scale and will gladly buy a book that is not even based on pseudo-science (sarcasm alert) in order to justify their feelings of abject failure.
There is, of course, no need for me to reiterate the facts. It has been scientifically proven, over and over again, that breastfeeding is the BEST option for your child. That cannot be, and is not, disputed.
If bottlefeeding had ever been a good idea, surely there would not be so many silly women that would need to read a book like this, since it would simply be common knowledge that bottlefeeding wasn't in fact wildly inferior. The fact that this book, and others like it, are even written is just further proof of the inferiority of bottlefeeding. Especially since, once again, the book is based on the GUILTY FEELINGS OF THOSE WHO BOTTLEFEED.
I wonder why those favourable reviewers of this book feel that things should be sugar-coated before they are spoken? Is the truth really that difficult to handle? Wouldn't they rather know the facts so that they could make the wisest decision possible for their children?
Here we come to another fact: most pregnancies in America (even amongst married couples) are unplanned. This is why ultrasounds are routinely performed as a matter of course at around 12 weeks gestation of the fetus. It seems a little strange to me that something as important as bringing a child into this world wouldn't be well thought out. But then I look at books like this one and heave a great sigh when I realize that there are some women who are so selfish at heart that they would bring an innocent and defenseless child into this world and not even bother to make an attempt at breastfeeding it.
Choice? Yes, women can choose to feed their children however poorly they want. Seems they'd want more for their children, but that's just me.
Finally, I give Ms. Robin a failing grade on this review for taking the easy way out.
Ms. Robin could have felt her feelings of guilt and remorse and put them to good use.
She could have mobilized people to ACTIVELY participate in making breastfeeding easier for those who choose to nurse their children. She could have reported how most women don't have any access whatsoever to lactation specialists at their hospital, and who are left on their own to grapple with breastfeeding in the dark.
In short, Ms. Robin could have been a force for good, an agent of change, speaking on behalf of other women in her shoes. Instead, she took the easy way out. She became a passive nihilist. Since there was nothing to be done about her feelings of guilt, she turned inward, ran back scurrying to her little rabbit hole to hide in, and then she advised others to do the same. Why? Because knowledge of their errors would be too painful. Avoid pain at all cost and be passive. Blame others for succeeding where you failed, call them a cult, anything to make yourself feel better.
Ms. Robin, maybe someday you will write a proper book. An interesting book full of facts and inspiration, rather than some pieces of paper held together by binding that is of little use to anyone.
Thank you!.......2005-05-16
I think there needs to be more books in the world like this one. I truly feel no one has a right to tell me what is right for my baby. Everyone comes from different situations, so don't be so quick to judge. Learn the facts before you form an opinion.
too bad she doesn't really help people.......2005-05-01
As a mother who has both bottle and breastfed, I find this book disturbing. You can get better information with the packets in the hospital. This book is filled with wrong information, and if you didn't know you should feel guilty about bottle feeding you will when you read this!
Great Support Resource.......2004-11-01
This book has made a huge difference for me. I can't breastfeed due to an infectious disease which will spread to my baby via breastmilk. I just felt so terrible about not being able to breastfeed because I actually believed the propaganda that breastfeeding prevents all sorts of other disorders. I felt I was giving my baby a bad start. Reading this book made me realize that although breastmilk is best when possible, as I've always felt, formula is not the devil's toxic brew that some radical activists make it out to be.
The author clearly states that she is not a health professional. She clearly states that she is just a woman who found herself unable to breastfeed and totally alone and without support as a result. I found this to be true as well.
This book is the counterbalance that women need in this society where the mantra "breast is best" is drilled into our heads and the science is skewed to such a disgusting degree to make non-breastfeeding women feel guilty.
I know women with the same disease as I have who have breastfed because they were so controlled by the media and propanganda surrounding breastfeeding. They felt that breastmilk was the golden elixer and that their child would suffer without it. Now they have very ill children because they caught the disease from their breastmilk. Nice job!
Women need truth and education and free choice... not guilt-tripping and blown up BS research. The radicals have made a big mess and hurt many children in their quest to help them and they don't even see it.
My mother was La Leche League in the 70s and I and my four siblings were all breastfed. I know breastfeeding is the better option if your milk is safe and your baby is able to get enough milk from you, etc. I highly recommend this book to anyone who can't breastfeed or can't manage to breastfeed due to something in their life.
