I am one of the editors of the Current Diagnosis and Therapeutics in Pediatrics 25th Edition textbook. I have received excellent feedback on my book, Breastfeeding Telephone Triage and Advice published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (soon in 4th edition) as a helpful resource for physician practices and anyone providing advice for breastfeeding.
