Recenzje

Substance abuse during motherhood is, unfortunately, an increasing problem in our modern world. The desperate self-medication is dangerous for the baby and also for the mother. This extremely important book offers new understanding of the vulnerabilities of these mothers and babies and opens up therapeutic windows to help and treat not only present mothers and babies but also future generations, too. We all need to carefully read this book!
