This book is very big and thorough. I bought it for my IBCLC. It's up to date and a pretty easy read. I was nervous it would overly technical and hard to understand but it's not at all. I highly recommend it.

    Dovrebbe essere tradotto in italiano, consigliato a ostetriche con dimestichezza con l'inglese. Testo specialistico per addetti ai lavori, aggiornato, professionalmente valido.
