This book, from a leading expert in working with expectant dads, doesn't sideline or speak down to men. Instead it provides an array of targeted information to fully prepare men for their new roles - as both birth partners and fathers. 'The Expectant Dad's Handbook' is a one-stop guide to prepare men for their path to fatherhood. It provides practical answers to all the questions on the mind of a dad-to-be.
