Calling this ""a virtual computer for every mother who wants quick information on any aspect of child-raising' might be somewhat overly optimistic but it is a generally useful handbook arranged under broad rubrics such as ""Emergencies, First Aid, and Poisonings"" after which follow specific entries -- Bites, Broken bones, Burns, Carbon monoxide, Cuts, Drowning, Electric shock, Epistaxis, etc. Compares favorably with Doubleday's frequently revised Encyclopedia of Child Care and Guidance.
