Editorial Review: Product Description: This book provides parents with a comprehensive, scientifically-based guide to the facts, myths, problems and solutions associated with raising a vaccine free child. It helps them protect their children both from the wiles of the vaccine industry and from harmful germs. With 467 references, there are no trendy anti-vaccination myths in this book. Readers will learn that immunization is not the reason for the absence of some infectious diseases, that insidious, long-term side effects are very common, and that there is a media blackout on the topics of vaccine side effects and vaccine failures. Understanding the difference between childhood illnesses and the other infectious diseases is the key to understanding immunisation. This book advises parents on how to bring children safely through childhood illnesses like measles and whooping cough, and discusses medical and non-medical prevention and treatment of the non-childhood infectious diseases. The myth that herd immunity exists paves the way for the persecution of non-compliant health-conscious families. The information in this book empowers parents of vaccine free children to withstand the accusation that they are spoiling herd immunity. A look at the early documents regarding vaccination reveals that it is an unscientific procedure that is based on falsehood, cruelty and supposition. Average Rating:
 Rating: - Informative readI found this book to be very informative in regards to diseases and the history of vaccines. Rating:  - Amazing book!I think that Wendy Lydall has a wonderful, inviting way of writing, which would walk any new parent through this contentious issue. She seems to combine the rigour of a researcher with the wisdom of a mother, who has lived out the issues discussed on the book. This book is as much about Wendy's journey as it is about vaccination. I totally recommend this book to anyone who has ever doubted the claims of Western, modern medicine. Rating: - Well Written and Easy To ReadI highly recommend this book to any parent who is seeking information about vaccination. I found Raising a Vaccine Free Child to be well researched, well written and easy to read. It is exactly the book I needed when my first child came along. Wendy Lydall provides a scientifically referenced case against vaccination as well as providing helpful information about infectious diseases. Not only has this book given me a great insight into the scientific, social and financial history of vaccination, ...

Most of the book talks about the harmful effects of vaccinations and not about "raising a vaccine free child" as the title suggests. The author gives no credentials or BIO. She only covers a few of the vaccine preventable diseases. She is obviously extremely anti vaccination so this would not be a suitable book for someone who is still undecided or coming ... Read More Rating: - GREAT BOOKIf you are questioning vaccines this is a wonderful book. The author does not think vaccines are the worst thing ever- some books out there are SO overboard. She is very insightfull and the book is refrenced. Her daughter had whooping cough and the author explains what she went through. It tells you what to do if your child gets one of these illnesses. It is a wonderful book. I loved it.
