I just read a wonderful interview with Karen Maezan Miller , author of Momma Zen:Walking the crooked path of Motherhood.
I liked the interview, but haven't read the book….
if you have, what did YOU think of it?

Just some further notes on other books you may enjoy.
Welcoming Consciousness by Wendy Anne McCarty is available as an ebook, and one of the most comprehensive books on infant development today, pulling together many different viewpoints and theories into one solid format to explain the many discrepancies.
Also, a new dvd is available called What Babies Want by Debby Takikawa, a pioneer in the field of pre and perinatal psychology.

By no means an exhaustive list, here's some "starter" books for anyone intersted in the foundational theories of what I do.
They are in my opinion, wonderful overviews of the consciousness and awareness of infants.
- The Mind of Your Newborn Baby. Dr. David Chamberlain (1988/1998); Berkeley, CA: North Atlantic Books.
- The Biology of Belief: Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter, and Miracles. Dr. Bruce Lipton (2005). Santa Rosa, CA: Mountain of Love/Elite Books.
- The Secret Life of the Unborn Child. Thomas Verny and John Kelly (1981/1986); New York: Dell.
- Tomorrow's Baby: The Art and Science of Parenting from Conception Through Infancy. Dr. Thomas Verny and Pamela Weintraub (2002); New York: Simon and Schuster. NOTE: The new paperback edition of this book has a new title - Pre-Parenting, nurturing your child from conception.
