Hate to be the voice of dissent, but I just did not care for this book much. I was really hoping for some facts and figures to help me make decisions about vaccinating my child, but instead, I got vague reassurances with out-of-context numbers. I really felt like the author was "talking down" to the reader and making assumptions that I couldn't think for myself. It was not all bad, though. The section about the different vaccines had some interesting information. I would not, however, recommend Hate to be the voice of dissent, but I just did not care for this book much.

A well-presented resource on how vaccines work, how they're made, why they're safe, and how effective they are. The authors know many parents have been concerned by sensationalist anti-vaccine claims, but they always treat those common questions as good questions that deserve good answers...which they give with references.

This book is a model for presenting health information to a popular, adult audience.
